I’m new to the hobby. Please disregard all the algae, I’m still in an ugly phase. There’s something red growing on my toadstool (shown in the middle of the bottom picture) and there’s something else attached to my favia (shown in the middle of the top picture). I’m wondering if either of these are cause for concern at all. Any help would be awesome!

Top pic looks like sponge and an aptasia and bottom looks like a bit of bryopsis which can become a nightmare algae. Start pulling as much as you can by hand to remove
