I got these two zoas a while ago, and never really cared what they were until now. I think they are watermelons, but as I was looking there were so many types, variations, and similar looking zoanthids I thought I would post here. One colony is orange-ish in the center, with slightly paler colors, and the other has a red-ish center with deeper purple and green. I know they aren't some rare type (got them for $10 and $15, both colonies originally had 3-4 heads) so hopefully this is easy, and they are just a plain old watermelon.

first ones look like eagle eyes/ watermelons they both look the same to me. The second pic looks like something different sorry can't help much.
 
First are eagle eyes (watermelons are a bit more pink), second are what I've seen labeled as reverse fruit loops
