looks like diatoms, normal for a new tank, as long as you arent using tap water they should go away on their own pretty quickly

2m I am going to add my first coral frags and I was wondering how long do I have to wait before I can add more?

You can add corals as often as you like and as many as you like at one time

yep, because they add so much more waste to the tank than corals or inverts

Red mushroom
Hard to tell on this one -- looks like a small goniopora (flower pot coral) frag? Can you get a better pic? Or it could be a zoanthid? I'm hoping it's a zoanthid frag.
Last one is another type of mushroom. It doesn't look completely open yet, so maybe a fuzzy mushroom.

Those look great -- the zoas should spread quickly.

its safe and blooming no worries lol
now next question, diatoms have fully taken over my rock and I'm not worried but how long before they go away and is there anything I can do to help? (any reviews on adding bacteria would help too)

patience on both accounts, but the exact length of time depends on your individual set up

I have about a 2 inch sand bed of black and white sand, I've noticed that its getting pretty messy, is there any thing I can add to clean it up?

Looking good so far. If your sand is getting messy looking, add some more sand sifters to help get the crud up.
