What are these?
 
I noticed a bunch of white organisms attached to my rock, they look like tiny white pineapples, however my fishes aren't interested on chomping them :lol:

Can anyone identify these please.

Pineapple Sponges by the looks of most of them... Good to have IMO.

Those are sponges, as JDigital said, commonly called the pineapple sponges. Good filter feeders. That hair algae on the other hand...
