The purple and green ones look to be Acanthastrea Lordhowensis or "Acan Lords".

The orange ones look like either Acanthastrea Bowerbanki "Acan Bowerbanki" or perhaps Lobophyllia hemprichii "lobo coral" or "Brain coral".

Thank you very much, is the purple and orange one very common or is it a more unique color?
 
It can kind of depend on your location and what ultimately gets brought in to your area. I think both pieces are very nice.

Acans are some of my favorite corals as well as lobos. I have yet to get a lobo but am on the lookout.
 
Yeah they are some of mine too, but these will be my first so I am excited to get them
