Hi took the plunge and bought some coral today. The lfs had no idea what they were or what we needed to do to maintain them. Took some snaps. They are all closed up an I will take some more when they open. But can anyone identify from these and inform how to care for them. I am still a total noob.

The first pic looks sorta like a type of mushroom. Ricordea or ricordea yuma maybe.

Yes that looks right for the first one. Do I need to feed it etc?
 
No they don't need to be fed anything specifically.

Not really. Is it stoner or soft? The pic isn't up to much to be honest.

Lol that's pretty much what it looks like. It's like a pink fungus.
