Can't tell what you're referring to in the picture. Can you circle it and also get a clearer picture?

Look up spionid worms & see if that is it. It's hard to tell for sure in the pic but that is what it looks like on the rock. Can't help with what's on the glass because I can't see anything

I can't really see anything on the glass, but that tube made out of sand grains might be a Cheatopterid worm.

One on the left looks like a montipora. Not sure of the one on the right.

Hard to tell because of actinic lights. First could be a Stunner Chalice and the second just looks like a common purple and green blastomussa.
