maybe a finger leather or colt? depeding on who sold it to you.. when it opens does it flow freely or is it kind of hard and sturdy like a leather? in my expierience colts and other softies move more freely allowing the current to move them easily while leather usually stay stiff and relatively still with there polyps extended.. good luck on the id.. maybe another picture with different lights might help..

It almost looks like a Kenya Tree Coral. But kind of hard with the photo.

It's a finger leather from either the solomon islands or fiji.

the #2 leather looks like a sinularia ( green tree leather) grows realy fast, easy to frag, great coral to start a tank with. The first one looks like a colt coral realy hard to tell with the lighting. If it is realy soft to the touch I would say colt. prety hardy easy to keep but hard to frag.It will not stick to rock with glue, or string, or toothpick. It just slimes over comes loose and drifts around in your tank.
