Not sure what I’m trying to look at here. The algae, or the whole thing entirely?
 
Two on the right appear to be large vermetid snails. I’d break them off and chuck.
 
2 on the right side look sort of like spirobid worms, and the single left looks like a tiny feather duster. But its very hard to tell

I thought the one might be a feather duster. Off to google spirobid worms! Thank you.
 
May be a better picture.

I see what looks like tube worms and vermetids.
For vermetids, break at base completely at base with pliers and discard or cover the hole carefully with gel superglue.
