cabbage leather coral

Morning all! I've had my green cabbage leather for roughly 6 years, but in the last 2 months it has looked horrible. I initially thought it had to do with lighting and/or flow due to coral growth throughout the tank. I adjusted the corals above it so the leather wasn't shaded anymore and...

Can anybody help me identify what’s hanging out on this coral in the front? I just got it in. I know the one piece is bubble algae and I should just take it off but what’s the other stuff? Thank you!

This is my leather cabbage coral I got yesterday, this little guy is my first coral, along with two green striped mushroom coral. I'm so happy, it looks so much better than it did yesterday when I got it.
