So found this in brushy creek in round rock texas. Dont know what it could be but I'm pretty positive its a fossil of some sort. Has the sound of very thin hollow porcelin when I set it down any help on id of these would be great.

Welcome to the Forum! :)
The first one reminds me of a caprinid rudists, like the one from the picture below.

Definitely a caprinid type of rudist. The remains of secondary tubes along the inner whorl are the clincher. Not to mention the location.
