Hello everyone! I recently bought a live rock with a lot of "bonus babies" attached:-). Since I'm new I'm having hard time identifying what they are, and if I should get rid of them or keep. We want to have a reef tank with some fish. I'm attaching pictures of the two guys I'm talking about (in blue light and white light for better visibility)
Thanks!

Is it safe for fish? I want to move my 2 clownfish to the that tank. Could it sting coral?
they are in general safe for fish, I have heard stories of them sometimes eating fish but I think that this is a very rare occurance and probably just for small fish like gobies
it can sting other coral
 
Bunch of Rhodactis mushrooms (the smaller brown ones). Large one is a Hairy Mushroom. Crazy LR btw how much did you pay for it?

The guy was selling his LR $2.50/lb., so I'm assuming I paid about $5 if not less for it:-) good deal?

Uhm yeah! Crazy good deal. Here in SoCal I'm paying $7.50 per pound (that's the cheapest in my area) and I'd be glad if I got a single hitchhiker. Even like a single bristle worm. I'm starting to think my LR is just dry rock painted red hahahaha. But anyways congrats on that steal

Thanks! To be honest, it's my 9-y-o daughter's tank (I know, sounds like a spoiled kid, but she's actually crazy about marine life and funded bigger portion of the costs so far). She wants to get rid of (trade in a local store) that hairy mushroom cause she's afraid about her clowns and corals.

Won't harm the corals at all. Getting rid of the hairy mushroom might be a good idea since clowns sometimes try to host them and aren't always successful. Maybe offer to sell it to someone for a low price that way you get something out of it.
