NEW HITCHIKER

FOUND 2 NEW HITCHIKER LAST NIGHT I GOT A PIC OF ONE AND WILL POST SOON.  THE ONE I GOT A PIC OF LOOKS LIKE A PINK VENUS FLY TRAP W/ ITSS MOUTH PARTIALLY OPEN IN THE SHAPE OF AN OVAL, AND THE OTHER LOOKS LIKE THE TUBE OF A FEATHER DUSTER BUT ITS IN A COIL W/ THE END STICKING OUT, AND IT SEENS LIKE THERE IS SOMETHING INSIDE IT.  THERE IS NO CROWN THOUGH, AND I NOTICED WHEN SOME SAND WAS KICKED UP THAT IT SEEMS TO BE CREATING A WEB THAT SPANS ABOUT 2in.  CAN ANYONE ID
THANKS

 

The first sounds like a Tunicate or Sea Squirt, does it ahave a single hole for a mouth?

The second sounds like a filter feeder of sorts. Will have to wait for the pics though to be sure.

 

I NEVER NOTICED THE FIRST BECAUSE ITS KIND OF HIDDEN UNDER A ROCK. THERE ARE ACTUALLY 3 OF THEM RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER. I AM STILL TRYING TO GET A GOOD PIC OF THE 2ND ONE. ITS HARD BECAUSE ITS RIGHT NEXT TO THE GLASS SO THE PIC HAS BEEN COMMING OUT FUZZY IM WORKING ON IT THOUGH. THANKS CRAIG

 

No problem!

 

here is the pic from the 1st hitchhiker

 

and heres a closeup:

 

Looks like a polyp to me. Any one else?

 

i searched on the internet and i think the 2nd hitchiker is a Vermitid snails

 

Is it sessile or motile? If it doesn't move, sessile, I wouldn't think it was a snail.

 

ITS SESSILE BUT I DID A GOOGLE SEARCH AND THERE WAS ANOTHER PERSON DESCRIBED THE SAME THING I HAVE AND THEY SEEM TO THINK ITS THAT SNAIL. WHO KNOWS???
