I got this from my LFS for free so I was pretty happy, however I don't know what it is, so I don't want to add it to my main population till I do. It's about 1/2" in diameter and when it is fully extended its about 1". Thanks for your help!

Try feeding them thawed out Mysis shrimp or Brine shrimp, Mysis is an appetite stimulator and should help the clown to get his hunger back. How long have you had them in the tank, and how long has the tank been established?

Would it be a sin to put a small (3-4") Yellow Tang in a 29 Eclipse?

I think that they are just a Xenia or sorts, there is also the possibility that they are star polyps but I'm not sure.

Looks like one too me. Does it pulse or just sway in the current?

+1 They are called Q-Tip sponges and are a great filter feeder in your tank, most of the time they all die off as the tanks gets more established.

Guilty as charged.

Very good to have, you will see little bite marks in the algae on your glass from the night before. They don't like the light too much.

I'm pretty sure that it's Aptasia.

Another great way to get rid of Aptasia anemones is to buy a peppermint shrimp, but it has to be a special kind. The "Lysmata wurdemanni" is the particular species that you want, not the more commonly found brother "Lysmata californica". Google to tell the difference, and buy one for every 15...

The first thing on your glass is a bunch of micro worms (they are similar to feather dusters) and they are not harmful to your tank. The second one is a red sponge, again they are more common in newer tanks and will typically go away as the tank becomes more established. Both of the creatures...

It could be an Anemone Crab, they are a white and brown mixed crab. The most defining feature is that they have filter catching nets on their front claws.
