Hydroids probably
Mostly harmless, but many would take them out when possible
They add diversity, and diversity is our strength

I dont think cause it looks more like a plant/coral thing (i know corals arent plants but i dunno the term) it kinda looks like a polyp or head of something, ill try for a better pic laterYour last picture looks like it has a zoa spider in it.
ive got like 10 coloniesI see hydroids. I have those same ones in my softie tank. They will spread very slowly, but they will spread.
I lowered my water and I used my power drill to drill into the rock where they were. It created a huge mess, it was crazy, and they still grew back. I tried putting glue on them and they still grew back. The tubes are rubbery so you can’t break them, and can’t pull them out. They root deep into the rock.
Depending where it is, the best solution is to completely break off that piece of the rock.
Uh oh. That sucks man, I’m sorry. To me that’s a big problem and I don’t know how to solve it. I’m struggling to contain my one small colony. Good luck.ive got like 10 colonies
They dont seem to be an issue should i still try to contain? any chemicals?Uh oh. That sucks man, I’m sorry. To me that’s a big problem and I don’t know how to solve it. I’m struggling to contain my one small colony. Good luck.
These are not hydroids, zoo or majano or anemone but rather Hidden Cup Coral - Phyllangia americana. These are harmless and pick light spectrums well.Not the frag I meant the thigs in front of it

Yea its tampa bay saltwater rock, but ive got orange tubes on there aswell i dont know about skeleton though on eitherDid the live rock happen to come from Florida? If it looks like it has a skeleton it could be cup coral, tube coral, or oculina robusta.
They do really look like that thanksThese are not hydroids, zoo or majano or anemone but rather Hidden Cup Coral - Phyllangia americana. These are harmless and pick light spectrums well.
