so a local reefer and I made a trade, I traded her a small leather coral and some macro algae for this tree coral, I have never had one which is kinda silly since its normally a first coral for most, the leather I traded her was a frag like the leather in the lower left of tank in the first pic, unsure of what kind of leather it is, the polyps are yellow/green but the main body of the leather is brown, as for the tree also have no idea what kind it is. any help would be greatly appreciated..

When the polyps close, if they are white, it may be a Capinella. In the top picture, the bottom left coral looks like a sarcophyton or lobophyton.
 
I have the same coral, Internet search shows Capnella (Kenya tree) too, but LFS shows different coral as capnella, that looks to me as Arboreum (also Kenya tree).

Hardy coral, no troubles at all, only it's brown, not red or yellow, and grows big. No special care, IMHE.
