Can someone ID the white coral that looks like a tree as well as the brownish coral that looks like a really tiny anenome (right next to the tiny green mushroom)?

Also, what kind of zoos are those? Or are they Palys? I obviously don't know much about corals.

Thanks!

white one looks to be maybe a juvenile toadstool but too hard to tell. the "anemone" on the other hand is a majano anemone and is VERY bad. get rid of it asap!
 
Are you sure about that being a manjo? I have several of those as well as aiptasia here and there and none of them look like these things. These things have like a "bubble" toward the ends of their tentacles. They came on a small rock I bought that had a few mushrooms and those zoos (or palys). When a piece of mysis comes near them, they grab it and fold in like the zoos...the aiptasia/manjos I have don't do that.
 
majano's are a type of anemone. this gives them the same characteristics like the shape (bubble) and the motion of consuming food.
 
Like said first one looks like a toadstool or some other kinda leather coral and the second is a Majano.
Kill the bastard.
 
guess its unanimous. Do you kill manjo's the same way you kill aiptasia? The rock these buggers are on shares it with a few mushrooms and those palys/zoos...but it is nice and small and I can remove the rock..should I try and cut them off? Inject them? That is twice now for the source of this rock..first time it was aiptasia (which when I first saw it thought it was a cool coral of some sort), now its these buggers. Geesh!
