First one is some hairy green staghorn (possibly albro) definitely not a slimer. second one is probably a tricolor valida (definitely not a red planet)

Ok thanks for the response, yeah I think you nailed it with the green albro stag. Second one I am still searching because the growth pattern looks a lot like a valida kind of looks like a yellow efflo too

Cool. Glad you making some progress. Same coral can look so different in another tank based on lighting and flow so it definitely makes ID tough.
