Hitchhiker on zoa plug. Some kind of polyp?

[Rusty_L_Shackleford]

Picked up a zoa frag and noticed these hitchhikers on the plug. The pictures are much bluer than the tank apears, i have not mastered taking good cell phone pics with the leds. The apear to be some kind of polyp possibly? They retract when disturbed but i havent been able to get a picture of them closed yet. looks like a translucent off white.

Could be a zoa eating Nudibranch. Did you dip them?

That’s a colonial tunicate species - harmless filter feeders, but some species can be pretty invasive, so I’d try to keep it isolated.

We have a winner. Apears to be an exact match after some googling. Both are on a chuck of rock or coral skeleton glued to a Frag plug maybe ill see if i can seperate them sooner tham i planned.
