I don't know what you are talking about in the first pic but the second appears to be a spirorbid worm. No big deal. He can stay.
 
The first pic is the white translucent tube like things in the center of the picture.
The second looks like it is attached to the rock itself. It has 2 large holes that close. It is purple. Is that a kind of spirorbid worm?
 
Are there any tentacles that come out of it at all? perhaps when you feed?
spirorbid worms only have a single hole at the end of a tube. If there are two holes then it's something else. a tunicate perhaps.
I still can't I.D, the translucent tubes, but I'm thinking filter feeding creatures for both.
 
Here are some better pics. I rearranged the rocks a bit tonite.
