I think this is just a type of snail. The worst it can do is irratate your corals . Pick it off of the rock if you want it gone.

This is a type of pest anenome. You might want to kill it before it gets a chance to spread.

This one looks like a hydroid colony to me and should be removed IMO. They are not good to have, but I'm not 100% positive that this is one.

Hope this helps.

How did you get the pictures to look so big?

I just use standard image tags.

This thread in the picture forum covers it all.

The first picture seams to have started to spread after 2 years. I have 3 babys in different areas.I thought that it may be a sun anemone but not sure.

The second picture is spreading and if you touch it they all retract

The third picture sorry for the bad picture but if you look at the end of the right branches you can see a web . It appears that they set a web to catch food and bring it back and feed.

thanks for the help everyone

Hey--I answered this in RC, too! Doesn't the "pest anemone" look like a blastomussa to anyone else? Or is it just me? I never wear my glasses at the computer, so....

Also, contrary to public opinion on RC, the "hyrdroids" look like yellow polyps to me.
