Looking to see if anyone has any idea what these two things are. One are these fuzzy balls that are on the underside of live rock and in every hole. I don’t see any on top of the rocks that are exposed to direct light. I also now have something that looks like white fuzzy/stringy/cotton like algae. Both are only on parts of the rock that are not exposed to direct light. Any help and resolutions would be much appreciated.

Pineapple Sponge!!! harmless filter feeders, but usually go away after a few months regardless of how well you keep the tank
 
I don’t see any cotton-like algae, but I do see sponges. There’s definitely pineapple sponges - you may have another kind too (I can’t tell from the pics), but you for sure have pineapples.
