Newly found tenants, Please help Id
I found these on a rock after moving things around in the tank. I checked the anemone looking rascals against pictures of Majano and i don't beleive that is what they are, but any help would be appreciated so that I will know whether to be excited over a new find or pull them out.
Also beside them is a tube type worm or something that is encased in a calcerous tube and has a blue head, the antennas didn't show up in the pics very well, but it has two of them. Thanks for your help! P.S. I am very new to using Photobucket so I will attempt to get the pics right the first time. LOL!  [/IMG]  [/IMG]  [/IMG]

The two antennae worm is probably a spionid. Also look up vermetid. They can also have the tube like casing.

Have those corals been under the rock for a long period of time? If so Id bet they were nonphotosynthetic, or they were being fed from light reflecting from the bottom. Maybe a cup coral or something, but they look really cool

Actually the rock faced the left side glass. It was in the open just turned to where you couldn't see the face side of it so to speak.
They open and retract just like a zoa or anemone would do when something goes past like the snails or crabs.

Thanks Dave, I never even thought about a blasto. That would be a nice find after discovering all the hidden Aptasia I found this weekend so far.

Yeah looks like some type of encrusting lps. Cool coral, give it some attention and more light. Keep us posted on the development of this one.

I always hate rearranging rock work, but this time it paid off with a couple of new critters and I got to terrorize a few more Aptaisas.
I will definetly give this one a little extra attention.
