I've got a couple of corals that I've been nursing back to health and don't know what they are. I've included a coupe of pics of them, ones a leather or some kind of softie, the other one almost looks like a porities. Can anyone help me identify these guys? I'm not new to the forum, but I lost my isp some time back (several months ago actually) and can't remember my user info. I just kinda watched the board before anyway, so its no big loss. Thanks in advance.

Thanks AquaReeferMan -
I was thinking that the first one was a finger leather, but I've never seen one that was that green in color and its the color that kept me from calling it a finger leather.
As for the second, It doesn't look anything like the other two types of porites that I've got growing in my tanks. When we bought it, there was just a tiny bit of the actual coral showing through all the algea and I didn't expect it to come back like it has. Maybe it is an encrusting montipora, I'll keep checking and maybe throw it in the growout system to attempt to aquaculture it.
