Just remove the coral from the plug and glue it to a new one or onto your rock and throw the old plug away

To me that looks like Cladophoropsis. I would remove the plug and scrub it off. Then do another scrub with some hydrogen peroxide. Just try not to get the peroxide in the coral.

This is one where you want to pull off by hand or with tweezers in a container and get rids of the roots or else it will grow back
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
