Coral identification? Also, why my coral looks this way?

Added a live rock that had a couple different corals on it. What are these two coral types?

Then I'm pretty sure this is a mushroom coral, but it looked like this:

And now it looks like this...

It's all flat and limp in the back. I know it's a poor picture, but it's getting worse.

Is it lacking light? Food? What? I don't want to lose them. The green soft coral looked all shrunken until I raised it higher in the tank, and it was fine after that.

Please help!
 
The first is a bad type of anenome. Maybe a majano? Second is a mushroom, most likely too much light is making it unhappy.

I will inject it with lemon juice and boiling water. Never saw Majano before, thanks for letting me know though! I've had it for a month and thought it looked nice. It hasn't spread though.

I moved that coral closer to the light and it appears to be doing better.

careful injecting inside the tank if any particles fly around expect your tank to be infested with majano's !
