The spiral things on the glass are a small species of feather duster. These will stay small, though, so don't think they'll grow big like the ones you see for sale.
The black bubbles (maybe they're actually a very dark green?) might be a bubble algae (Valonia or Ventricaria species): http://www.biol.tsukuba.ac.jp/~inouye/ino/g/ulv/valonia.jpg , http://saltcorner.com/sections/guest/algaepage/Green/bubblealgae/Vventricosa.htm

Tube worms (not a problem)
Bubble algae (can become a problem) Emerald crabs sometimes eat it.
Saltwater snails are not like freshwater snails, Most will not reproduce in the aquarium.
