Dont worry about it no problem. Is there any way of getting a better close up?
 
The first looks like aiptasia or manjano these are bad anemones. Spread like crazy and will sting other corals.

The other too look like zoanthids/palythoa polyps.
 
I agree the first looks like a pest anemone. The second photo looks like a stoney coral, maybe Cladacora. If this is what it is, it is not photosynthetic and will need to be moved away from bright lights as well as fed a good bit to survive. The third pic looks like it could be some type of macro or maybe a polyp. A better pic is needed.
 
1st one looks like Aiptasia
2nd one I have no clue
3rd one looks like a small mushroom that hasn't opened yet.
