Learning curve friend. We all
been there.

Sounds crazy , but you can take all that rock out , scrub it, an put it bac in.
Likely won’t even take that long.

No, I belive the first one is a macro algae. But I can’t be sure.
There are a couple types of valonia.

Were I you. I’d scrub and wash with peroxide , then Vibrant the tank.

First one is Botrycladia (AKA Red Grape Macro). It's a fast grower put some people like it
