Does any one know what the green sponge like algea is and what the redish tumble weed looking algea or sea weed is? Is it a nuisance algea and will it get out of control?

The tumbleweed might be gracillaria espescially if it's a free floating clump... no idea about the green one though.

I have the green one too, is it bladed/leafy? I can't tell from the pic. If it is, I believe its called Turtleweed.

The green stuff is more like a very dense sponge.
