Are they safe to have in a FOWLR tank? I just got this rock from my LFS and it came with beautiful life on it and plants etc.

#1 looks like maybe a leather (purple/gray) could also be cucumber
also orange/yellow looks like sponge
#2 Halimeda a macro algae also green hair algae the orange thing no clue
#4 green hair algae and Halimeda (macro algae)
#5 same as #1

yes it's all safe in a FOWLR but get rid of the hair algae

looks almost like the rock I got

Bristol worms are a good part of the the cuc

green hair algae is a indicator of high phosphates/over feeding
also it looks nasty when it takes over the tank
