Yeah, looks like A. nana, which is often confused with A. valida, due to similar colour forms. Nana has the very appressed coralites. Judging from the current state of the coral, I assume it has been in a few tanks, as the growth form is changing.
The second looks like A. abrolhosensis or A. pulchra, due to the scale-like radials. The former typically only shows scale-like radials near the newest parts, which later become appressed and tubular. Both are beautiful "basics" for the reef aquarium. Always display some character.
By the way, typically, A. vermiculata is considerably more delicate looking and not so robust. Also, the radials are a touch more prominent. I've only seen it once, alive. (or at least we think it was vermiculata
)
