![]() Hey
I'm having a bit of a hard time identifying these few items living in my tank Any insight would be of great assistance. Item 1 These inch to 2 inch long clear spiked threads are attaching themselves around the tank in all levels of light and flow. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2704/...d14f22d5_o.jpg Item 2 There are several of these worms in the live rock. They go from one hole to another and from time to time you can see stuff moving inside them. They are about a mm in diameter and are round. This pic http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2592/...102a5882_o.jpg it is empty. This pic, it is not. Note the yellow stuff moving down the tube. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2612/...36f219fa_o.jpg Item 3 Is to the right of center. It's a small purple flower shaped coral? Its rather small, but they seem to be spreading and i dont know if I should pull them before they spread much more. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2750/...73434f28_o.jpg Item 4 Is about the size of a pea. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2651/...a8c42a4d_o.jpg Thanks

![]() 1. http://www.melevsreef.com/id/digitate_hydroid.html
2. http://www.melevsreef.com/id/peanut_worm.html 3. Looks like Clavularia sp. (Clove Polyps) 4. Could be some sort of tunicate? Last edited by muck; 12-04-2009 at 01:46 AM. |

![]() I can't quite make out pic #4 but they almost look like a colony of tunicates. If it is a bunch of indiviual "chambers" with two vents in each then it is likely a tunicate. Does it look kinda like this?
