Got a hitchhiker or unknown critter?? Check here for an ID

I don't think it's a majano either. Wiz might be right with it being a rock nem. Was pretty beat up as I got it on a dry live rock flown all the way from Fiji which had just arrived at the LFS. I didn't think it'd still be alive

Plate coral i think

Yes, a baby plate (cycloseris or fungia) coral.

Flatworm ID please

I accidentally pulled it in half extracting it from a rock.

Polyclad Flatworm. Will eat all your snails and clams, bad. And, baby Collinista snails is what it's probably eating.

Can anyone identify either one of theese....

Upper left of the 1st picture looks like a sponge, but I'm not sure if that is what you were referring to.

Looks like an abalone.. Bottom looks like juvenile fire worm but uncertain without a closer/shot

Are you happy with Abalone? Being purple would make me think it's a Stomatella snail. And the worm is a Dorvilleidae polychaete, baby bristle worm, harmless.

just got home from work and this is on my glass? good bad ugly? does it need to be removed?

evolved · Mar 19, 2015

Nudibranch, and probably of the zoa-eating variety. Where there's one, there's usually more and eggs as well.

Ebone · Mar 19, 2015

some kind of nudibranch>

Also came to. Mind, I figured the purple coloration was due to camera and lighting effect.. But yes a stomatella could be a possible I'd as well! And only reason I said fire vs. Bristle was due to the defined clusters of bristles vs. A bit more spread out.. With that said better pics can help!
