White spots? Could be early stage of zoa pox....if it is, easy to get rid off. I use a knife or bamboo skewers to flick them off. Sometimes I do iodine dip afterwards. May have treat more than once to completely get rid of it.

Yes it looks like little plants growing around them with little bulbs. I'll be more specific and like the arrow

No this is growing like a pland it has a shaft and a small flower (looks like) on the tip. I'll try to get a better pic of it.
