I counted 30 arms legs? Its on my glass in my eel tank what is this thing as I have never seen one before until now... Is it harmful or a parasite? Its body is tiny but with the legs or arms extended its the size of a half dollar.

if you see him again, a clearer picture would help.
how old is the tank? i had something similar when my tank was just starting. it was some stage of a hydroid jellyfish, but the center wasnt as big as it appears to be in your picture.

Tank is 1 year old maybe a little older but it was stuck to glass and thats the best pic i could get. Only inhabitants of tank is eel and niger triger and it hard to get pict of something like that...

They are quite beneficial, and are usually in rock or buried. They will not harm your fish at all.
