Yah in the better pictures those are clearly a sponge/tunicate, the kind that like to live in the dark or in the shade. The first pic did look a lot like aiptasia though.

they're a good sign, so don't worry about them!

No question at all, they're a sponge. Totally harmless, some might even say beneficial. They're filter feeders and are a sign your tank is maturing nicely

Default sponge
You just killed a sponge!
Keep them in there, theyre good for your aquarium
The minute you take them out of water, theyre dead
