This is stil relatively Young, so very hard to name properly. So....don't pull me for my tongue.

It could be Buiningia aurea. Or it could be not. I think you'll have to wait some more for right ID.

Have rotated the picture and sharpened it a bit. Might even be an Echinocereus if they are all the same plant and not four separate ones in the same pot?

Looks a lot like Echinocereus coccineus.

If your cacti mess in your job just forget about the job.

When I Google on Echinocereus coccineus I see that my cactus could be that.
