that first pic could be aiptasia, it's not really clear. The second is definitely some form of bubble algae. While it's only small and you have the ability to do so without completely rearranging your tank, I would suggest you manually remove it before it has the opportunity to take over your tank (and it does have that potential).

After researching those for the past hour or so they both don't sound too appealing. For the bubble algae I'll try to remove it myself but am thinking of adding an Emerald Crab to my CUC to deal with any new blooms (plus I really like crabs!). I'm hoping the hair algae I have the hermits will deal with, thinking of getting 2 red leg and 1 blue legged hermits. And as for the aiptasia I'm unsure how to deal with it. Lemon injections seem like it'll work, but would be hard at this tiny stage, or a peppermint shrimp, which is ok but I was hoping to get a cleaner shrimp instead... Any tips on dealing with these from the canreefers?
If you haven't guessed I'm really pro-biomanagement. I'm looking to create a small ecosystem that's self correcting with very little outside manipulation. In other news. I found out late last night that I can order many aquarium/fish products through the family business at cost! I still have to see exactly what is offered but it can be written off as a business expense. Hoping to get decent deals on T5HO bulbs, food, supplements, test kits, filter media, etc... The benefits of having family that owns veternairy clinics!
