by start fish do you mean starfish? if so they aree probably pests if you consider putting any coral in there,(if not then great you get free starfish, which you could potentially grow and then you could keep harlequin shrimp) both of the worms look like feather dusters but thats all i can tell you
 
the star fish are little white ones that look like brittles and last night i found 3 or 4 that came out of the rock and looked like fancy serpant stars
 
how hardy are feather dusters i noticed that a couple didnt come out today
 
First two pics are feather worms, last is a sponge. If the little starfish have any black rings on the arms then they are in the family of brittle stars. They will stay very small and are perfectly harmless. Don't worry about the sponge or the feather worms either.
