Here are a few shots, not my best, but I wonder who knows what these different things are.
#1 is an anenome but what kind
#2 is a critter on the glass about 1/2" long
#3 is the white spot in the middle. It flipped around to propel itself around in open water or slithered over the rock and is kinda jelly-like.

Cause I just like to know. Thanks.

Thing 1: Looks like a majano anemone.
Thing 2: Some kind of polychaete, AKA bristleworm. Looks like maybe a eunicid based on the head. In my tanks they burrow in the sandbed and mostly scavenge, but I have seen one take a bite from a mushroom. Wouldn't trust it in a tank with clams.
Thing 3: A predatory flatworm. Preys on copepods, and I have never heard of them becoming a pest.
