Those are not encrusting SPS, but LPS. Looks like a favia and a cyphastrea, maybe? I am not a LPS expert, sorry. You will likely get better help in the LPS forum.

While most encrusting SPS can take a LOT of light, they don't NEED a lot of light. Most LPS can suffer a bit if you give them too much light, but they also can take a bunch too if necessary.
