Default Need help to ID corals

I have 2 corals that I want to sell/trade away but I have no idea what they are called, can someone help me please. All I know is one called blue mushroom, but that is it.

1rst one looks like blue mushrooms with green button polyps (also called green palys?)

2nd one someone else can probably help you identify.

If Paly I need to get rid of it, I don't like them. They are getting beaten up everyday from my lemon peel angel. She loves to nip at them though.
