The first looks a lot like a Chip's fuzzy blue-tip from ORA.

I'm not big on guessing acro species from pictures because that is what they are,guesses, and most are probably wrong.
Having said that I can't see enough detail in the pictures though I think the first is A. nana and is the once famous Larry Jackson's Purple Tip Monster. I say that because it reminds of a colony that was brought to me by a friend of mine that grows 'em out but the coralites look a bit different. Was it on a disc type base?

yes it was on a disc,btw I think the green acro was listed as a wild bali.Its growth habit is almost like that of a table,it was not mounted but came on a small piece of rock.one small acro crab showed up in it .rb

I agree with Just_Dave, the first one looks like Larry Jackson's Acropora nana that is growing in my system.
