No they weren't hitch hikers, I bought them, they were both on the same rock and one decided to hide under the rocks. I knew they were mushrooms just not the kind. Thanks alot..

3. I dont remember the name- they are a filter feeder
4. A white encrusting sponge
5. A big bubble underneath a rock
6. Bleached corraline- Possibly cyanobacteria for the black growth
7. Live rock now- a dead coral
8. looks like a pink encrusting sponge to me

Get rid of bubbles by blasting with turkey baster or just rotating rock (if nothing on it)
Not cyno, looks like black sponge - harmless (cyno is deep red/purpleish)
Dots on glass - harmless filter feeders.

not all cyano is red/purple in color- there is black cyano- if it comes off easy it is not a sponge. try to clean it off- it it brushes off easy, thats all you have to do- cyano grows in low flowing areas with ligh levesl of DOCs
Spirorbidae worms- are not threat to a tank, just to visual appeal if you dont like them
