Both look like just different colored sponges to me. I wouldnt be worried about them, just filter feeders. Although i did have a sponge go crazy and overgrew some button polyps one time...wasnt too upset though since it was just buttons

I'd just leave it be.

If you're feeding a filter feeder food, thats about all you can do

I dont think its weird at all to like them lol. There's some very interesting looking ones out there, thats for sure. Those just look like basic ones, but some of them have really really complicated looking patterns and stuff in them.
