First one looks like seriatopora caliendrum, birds nest, notice how the polyps are all in straight lines, second looks (pink) to be One also although the picture isn’t clear, could be a Montipora digitata. 100% not Acropora Millepora or Millepora species which is fire coral.

+1 man been researching digitata n I have found multiple sites with the same looking one seems to be a orange digi n I did witness very little polyp extension later in the night under just my blue led with no t5 on. And the other seriotopora just as u said n that one is one happy coral lol time will tell thanks man n everyone else that a helping

One in the back may not be digi possible a anacropora ???
 
Doubtful. Anacropora have a different growth form and don’t have a smooth body around the polyps. If you could put up I clearer pic I’d could better help. Unless the polyps are in very straight lines with a slight iridescence it’s a Monti. Also a hot pink Anacropora would set you back near $200.. not impossible, but not likely.
 
That’s an anacropora for reference.
