Question What is this?

I'm fairly new to the reef hobby. I received some live rock from my local petco a while back and recently have found through the algae is growing a very strange orange thing living in a feather dusters like tube. He has little antennas and sends out a web like string across the tank. After a short bit he will pull it in and seems to harvest his findings caught on this web. I have searched and searched but found nothing on this and the pet stores seem to be in great confusion over this little creature. I also have a green tipped item that looks similar to a coral but responds and acts like an anemone. Please help me identify these so I can properly take care of them. Thank you... Cameron

The first one sounds like a vermitid snail
