hard to ID without a good pic, but the first one can be ORA hawkins, I think I know the second one (I have one), but cant remember it, have to cross check my cherry coral order for the name
 
The first one looks like an Austrea sp. and the second is a Montipora digitata.

I was thinking of bubblegum montipora digitata for the second one.

I am pretty sure you are right, but could you tell how you distinguish the first one as Austrea sp, just curious

Growth patterns, thick body, coralite shape, growth tips. Hard to tell if Monti is Bubblegum from photo, see what color the tips grow out.
