I'm pretty sure that the first one is some type of Caulerpa just because of the way it is growing out. From my own personal experiences with caulerpa, you should remove it while it is still localized. It is known to benefit the tank as a nutrient export (ie. phosphates), but it will eventually get out of hand and become overwhelm your tank. Additionally, it is very difficult to remove once it has spread that much because the roots get into rock crevices and can't really be removed.
The second one is a botton polyp, they are kinda similar ot zoos. Hope this helps.

The white thing in the second pic is probably some kind of aptasia. Don't want them in your tank, either. There have been lots of threads on aptasia control. Just do a search for it for ways to get rid of it.

What size tank are you running?
I would keep the calurpa and get a foxface or some tangs in the future. I think it adds diversity to the tank, when kept under control. Many of us grow calurpa in seperate tanks as a water filter, and to feed our fish.
