1st looks like some Acanthocalycium or maybe Echinopsis and 2nd is firmly young Melocactus. Better to grow them 2-3 years and show again but direction you khow now.

The first one might be some Parodia as well.
If your cacti mess in your job just forget about the job.

They are too little to tell exactly, but I am sure that the second one is a Melocactus (I have several of them of different ages).

The first one is probably an Echinopsis... But those long spines... Maybe it's an Acanthocalicium, but I'd vote for Echhinopsis.

2. Is a melocactus, very difficult to say exactly which species it is at this stage.
