    They are good. Just means your tank is healthy and they filter the water for you. Those ones will stay about the size that tunnel is. The feather duster part that comes out should stay about 1/4 accross.

    Thanks for the help. It's pretty, the feather part is purple-ish.

    New addition... I have a bunch of tiny curly white things all over the walls!

    And that polyp is actually TWO polyps, you can see what looks like a shadow behind the one but it's actually a second one.

    the fuzzy ball is a sponge the polyp is a zoa congrats the zoa will need somemore light to color up and grow to be a nice colony. the sponge is harmless and benifical you will see alot in dark low flow areas.
