Hey coral keeper i have some of those things too and my LFS said they are hydroids. I looked up hydroids and doesnt look nothing like it. But yeah i tried killing em with aiptasia stuff but it doesnt really do anything and they are not aiptasia. More like some type of worms.

Nice pics. I really wanted a galixie coral but when I saw its tenticles at 10inches I said no way it would kill everything in my tank!

I got some updates! I put all the corals on diff spots. It looks very empty and not very pretty right now, but I'm looking at the tank on how it will look like in the future.

lol, I'm not finished moving things around. Pictures will probably be next week, like Monday or Tuesday because that's probably when I'm going to be finished moving things around and everything will be happy and open.
