What are these?

[ItsAName]

I was also given these two corals. I know the one is a plate coral, but not sure the type. No idea what the other is.

Thanks in advance

Grandis polyps and plate coral.

Is it just Short tentacled Green plate coral or does it have another full name?
Any thoughts on the type of Grandis polyp?

Palythoa Grandis aka cinnamon paly

Palythoa Grandis. Technically they were once characterized as protopalythoa grandis but I don't know if that is still the case today. I have these in my tank. The coloring is drab but the mottled pattern is unique. They reside in the sand bed and grow in very low light/current. Perfect for filling in spots at the bottom beneath other corals. They eat fish food so require no special attention. One of my favorite drab/filler corals. Some Pacific Ocean versions come with some green mixed in the white. I prefer the Caribbean straight brown/white.

They used to go by the name moon polyps.

Cinnamon polyps are (or used to be) a different brown polyp that was co-classified also a palythoa species but I have not seen these in the hobby lately. The oral disc was wider but the tentacles were longer.
