2# The snail is a turbo but what are the pros and cons and predators?

Pros-Good cleaner Cons- grows large and tends to knock over rocks and corals that are not well secured. Also known as "bulldozers" lol.

1# The white thing in the bottom picture what is it PRos and cons and what will it do?

Most likely a type of sponge. As tanks mature things like this will come and go. No pros, no cons either.

3# The red tube what is it and what will it do pros cons.

The top pic I assume- the red thing looks like it has an eye in that picture to me...? Some type of shrimp, crab or fish.?

Ok, I think the pics are flopped. 1 is 3 and 3 is one?
I agree on the turkey wing but the red tube is a tunicate. Filter feeder and are niether good or bad, they just are.
I agree the turbo is excellent for algae and bottom pic (white thing) looks like a sponge. Again, it's not good or bad, it just is.
