I bought some small live rock rubble with macroalgae on it and there is another little pink thing I don't know what it is. Can someone tell me what I have? In the upper part of the picture. It has little protrusions when the light is on.

Looks like red garcilaria and feather fern! As for the pink thing, I’m guessing some kind of softie coral :) hard to tell with it all closed up

What kind of algae is the brown stick like one growing out toward upper left corner? Thanks for reply!
 
Honestly looks liked dead seaweed with a leaf of garcilaria. Can you get a better picture of that specific piece?
It may very well be dead seaweed. There was another rock that had similar looking stuff so I thought it was supposed to look like that. Picture attached.

I also see a furry thin growing in the tank and attached video. Is this something to worry about?

Yeah I’d say that is just a dead piece of macro algae; hard to ID- as for the white one, it looks like bleached hair algae. I’d scrub it off with a toothbrush while siphoning it out
