I am new to the Saltwater side of aquariums. I got this rock from my LPS and it has 3 different kind of inverts on it. I you can tell from the picture, I would love to know what they are.
thanks

well, the one on the left looks like a small frag of xenia, and some kind of polyp/zoa on the far right, not sure about the middle though. maybe some kind of leather? Kinda looks like my pink xenia when it is shriveled, not sure though

The thing on the far right held onto the one on top and killed it. If that helps with identifying it.
Thanks for the help.

yeah, then it might be aptasia, which is like a little stinging anemone. Still, it could be a polyp of some kind, do you have any other pics?

referring to the one in the middle; i had a xenia when i first started my coral tank and when it was not doing good it look exactly like that.. sad to say it did not survive when it looked like that.. the ones on the left are xenias,, hopefully they stay alive.. good luck
