Can't really tell; could be coralline starting.

Could be several things. A photo under white light might help ID it.

Probably a normal part of the ugly phase. Keep nutrients up (don't let 'em drop too low), stock cleanup crew once you see green algae, and ride it out.

Perfectly normal, first stages of ugly faze

Not dino, may be foraminifera but as requested.... will need clear pics under white lighting and a little closer if possible.
