These are something alive, they looked like blobs of raised coraline and now they have red somethings coming out...

These look to be coming out of a very old LR dead coral clear little things with a pudgy center, alive and catches food on the little tips

Green plant? Looks like a dandelion tip that you blow and make a wish on? LOL... the tip - flowery part is not out all the time, only when feeding.

sorry for the blurs, the pods crawling on the glass were messing with the focus.
 
Ok, photos 1&2 is red caulerpa. A macro algae that has the potential to become a problem so keep it pruned well.
Photos 3,4 & 5 are all different types of hydroids. These can become a nuisance as well but can be control through water changes and lowering available nutrients in the tank
Pic 6 if you are referring to the red thing looks like a foraminiferan. Harmless detrivore.
The last pic, are these things mobile? The banding on them makes me thing peanut worm.
