Roger, I am leaning torwards,
The first one might be Acropora Caroliniana.
The second one Might be Acropora Subulata.

It is extremely difficult to confirm region (I.E. Australia, Indonesian, Bali, Vietnamies) until you talk to your Fish store, most of the time they can tell you where they got it from.

Roger, you can google both the acros I listed above and compare pictures, it may have different colors but the growth pattern and corallite should match...

#2 looks a lot like desalwi to me. Depends on how furry it gets.

Color isn't a good judge (not consistent from tank to tank, much less ocean to tank).

How about A. turaki or awi for #1? Maybe A. nasuta on #2?
