Coral ID/My tank pics

[Blue02celi]

here are some pics of my new (to me) tank.
not sure about 2 of the 3 pics. I know the first pic (brain), but not the other 2. also, dont know if you can tell from looking, but does the brain look ok? is there anything special I need to do for it?

hhhmmm... havent heard of those two... started looking at aiptasia cause I know I have 2 small pieces of LR so was easy to take them out, and then saw they come in different varieties so I was about to take them out as well.
I'll see what I can find on those two, thanks

1st looks like Trachyphyllia Radiata (Wellso)

The brain looks a little bleached, just give it some time, good h2o, and a little shrimp once a week and it will regain it's color.
