The first one is either A. millepora or A. prostrata. Can't tell the difference at that size. ether way you should cut away the dead part and give it more water flow.

The second might be A. tenius, but it is growing a little this so probably A. vermiculata. It will be easier to confirm when it grows out.

The other three are Acropora, but too small to be able to give a good guess.
 
I don't think the first one has a dead part. I'm seeing polyps and color gradients. Looks like a double frag or half was shaded.
 
thanks guys. Yeah the first one isn't dead it has two different I think millis growing together is actually a pink one and a yellow kind. it looks really cool. But the picture quality is just bad.
