Hi all
Still trying to learn about saltwater but I noticed these on some live rock if you shine a light on them they retract just wondering if they feather dusters or hydroids

Thanks

Definitely not hydroids- the first pic is definitely a feather duster worm (harmless filter feeders), so if all the tubes in the other pics are sending out similar crowns, they’d be feather dusters too.
