OK I know I have seen something like this on this forum before but I couldn't find it so I will repost. My Fighting conch was under the sand for about a week and finally popped out today to cruise around. He had these weird antenna looking things growing on his back. When I went and touched them with my algae scraper they sucked back into the little tubes that they built. Any Ideas on what they are?

I have a new one! This was stuck to the bottom of my frag tank! I think it might be a bivalve of some sort! Pictures were taken under 60x magnification! This little guy definitely moves around. I placed him back into my frag tank on the bottom, I went to look for it later and it had moved up the glass near the top of the tank.

I just noticed this guy on the underside of the rock my frogspawn is on. Sorry for poor photo quality. It's about 3-5 mm across. It seemingly popped up out of nowhere and is clear except for the white bulbs are around the nematocysts (assuming it's a cnidarian).

Thank you! I was amazed at how quickly it moved in the tank.

Thank you. After a bit of reading, I am surprised it's there if it is truly a cooler water nem. It seems they are like anemones in looks, but more like corals with the lack of basilar muscles. So, are these things sessile? It is growing under a rock. Should I try to get it into the light if it is a species I want to keep?

These guys can do fine in our tanks as far as temperature.... for the "short" term anyways. I've had them live for a couple of years, so death isn't imminent.

These are nocturnal and will prefer to be left in his little cubbyhole.
