I know this is a tunicate. Does anyone know what kind?

Looks to be one in the Corella genus. Likely Corella wilmeriana or possibly Corella inflata. Both are native and are "good" ones.

First anemone looks like a Metridium senile, (short plumose), 2nd anemone looks like a Swimming Anemone (sorry, don't know the scientific term offhand and I don't have my books with me - traveling right now) - and as Tim noted and I agree, the tunicates look like a Corella of some sort - I would guess inflata.
