    To me, the first one looks like a "rainbow" stylophora and the second one looks like a green slimer.

    I say green cats paw (stylophora) and not a green birdsnest due to the rounded tips. The second one is possibly a green slimer, but it looks more like the thick green acro that I have that is definitely not a slimer. There are so many acroporas that ID it past that may be difficult.
