    1 and 4 some kind of algae. 2 is a pineapple sponge, harmless. 3 looks like kenya tree.

    buy an emerald crab, asteria snails, and cerith snails. they will eventually take care of the algae

    1 and 4 looks like it could be bryopsis. If its is no CUC will help and you will need to boost your Magnesium with Kent Tech M.;)

    kinda agree with vinny. 1 and 4 looks like bryopsis. regular hair algae looks finer than those.
