Can you help me identify what these are?

Firstly, the reddish polyp on the upper part of this pic (is about the size of a quarter)

Secondly, the white fellow at the bottom left of the pic attached beside the blasto (not the best pic, sorry)

Also, spotted an inch long worm that was a dark green in colour. Any ideas it is 'good' or not?

Many thanks

Redish polyp looks like a button polyp or some kind of paly. The white stuff looks like xenia.

I agree with chowder, except the coral you called a blasto looks alot like an Acan Lord.

And that is an Acan Lord with the xenia on it.

For the worm, try googling peanut worm.

are there any special feeding requirements for the Acan Lord (I assume it is classified as LPS)? Have had it for 6 months and appears happy. Keep them at the bottom of the tank and tank is 24" deep with T5 lighting.
