The green stuff is super hard to scrub off and it's almost like an algee of some sort!

Blood worms! Are these bad?

Blood worms are good. Not only do fish love them, but they are one of many signs that you have a healthy eco-system! That other stuff [first pix] look like alien spawn..... Some kind of eggs, maybe?
