I don't have pictures because my camera isn't that good.  Also they are small and white.  These things are on my live rock and inside on protein skimmer.  They are about 1/4 inch long, anchored to the live rock with a foot like an anenome, whitish in color, and have like a feather duster coming out the top.  Does anybody know what I am talking about?  if you give me names, I can look at pictures on google.

ive got them every where. I just researched it and its also called a pineapple sponge. Harmless too. Also read that extra nutrients help it multiply. Direct light helps get rid of them.
