    The first one looks like a solitary tunicate. I got one on a rock I bought on ebay.

    Thanks subs & emerso21.. yes this is definitely a Sea Squirt. We have two smaller ones that look similar on the underside of another piece of LR as well as a pack of translucent blue ones growing nearby. Like anything, we'll watch the tank and pluck out any death. Anything dead & left in there could nuke the tank, squirts are no different!
