What is this thing? It grew there from a little teeny speck of nothing. It's grayish in color and seems to be growing up torwards the light. It's obviously some form of coral but I'm curious...

Kenya tree; maybe a pineapple tree.. not sure which. Is it normal for it to live at such an angle?

This thing also grew from nothing, its clearish white and are very hard. There are a a few separate spots that are growing throughout the tank. Any ideas what it is?

The first one looks to be a kenya tree, its angle is fine but if you want to make it stand up straight take away most of the flow on it. It is a low flow animal. The second is a non photosynthetic sponge
 
Your tank has crazy cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) everywhere. I'd assess your water parameters (particularly nitrates and phosphates) and make some corrections.
