Okay,
Finally got out the camera and worked REALLY hard on macro photo taking. Not sure what order these are going to be in when I post, so...
One is my mushroom coral, can anyone ID what type? Also is it normal for it go be the size of a dime after lights out and then grow to a silver dollar by lunch time?
Another one has brown tubes, like 3-4 i think. I think these are aiptasia. They are about 5 mm long in the body and have 1 mm arms, not frilly like feather dusters, very solid,just tiny. I treated this colony to a few ice cubes held close and they seem to be dying...
Last is maybe some type of feather duster. So far I've found like 8 of these throughout the 5 pounds or so of rock I have. I have two that i know are dusters as they have white and brown "rings" on their filters. These ones are all white and I just want to be sure they are okay to leave. I wasnt aware that feather dusters could live IN a rock, i thought they were tube worms that lived on the outside, maybe someone can clue me in there too?
Thanks for the help, I'm learning more every day
