As mentioned, the white things are pineapple sponges; the other thing is probably a colonial tunicate species (harmless filter feeders, but they may be highly invasive - if you see them growing on corals or other things you don't want to be smothered, remove them; keeping them isolated in a spot you can easily contain/remove them is a good idea).
