What are these?

Can yall help me out with ID's for these?

I think this one is a feather duster. It sucks back into the rock when I look at it or get close to the tank.


This one I have no idea about. I am talking about the white thiing that looks like a tree branch.



If yall see anything else in the pictures that I should know about please let me know.
Sorry they are kind of blurry.

 

it yould be aiptasia(Bad) or a tubeworm (Good) I would google image them or look here

well from what I can see in the pic is that they don't look like Aiptasia due to the structure, might be a vary large spirorbid worm (never seen them that big) or some other type I'll get the old trusty book out later to see if I can't peg it down.

 

Check that link there all there (hitchhiker FAQ) is one of the best I have seen

 

Thanks guys! There are a bunch of the things in the second and third picture. They look like a white tree with no leaves. They seem to be growing rather quickly. I would say they have doubled in size in a week.

 

Hackem... good link! Thanks! Didn't see any thing there that looked like what I have though. Learned alot about other stuff in my tank!

Dimweb... Thanks for taking the time to look into this for me!

Karma for the help to both of yall!

 

First pic is a feather duster, the other 2 pics look like hydroids. Do a google image search for hydroid.

Geekdafied... I did the google search. Nothing that looked like the thing I have in the first 25 pages. Thanks for the ID on the feather duster. If it is a hydroid should I get rid of it? looks like some of them can sting the crap out of you.

Hackem..... I'll check out that link.
