First one looks like a vermetid snail and the third looks like a fan worm. Neither are harmless. I have no idea what the second one is though.

Is that a little round ball in the second pic? My guess would be bubble algae. Out of all three of those pics, that would be the one you need to get rid of and it needs to be done carefully. I have no experience with that...so far. So someone else will have to chime in or you could start Googling!

I would remove the rock with the bubble agae and remove the bubble with a tweezer out of the water. If you remove it in the water and that bubble bursts it will just spread more.
