From that view, looks like a small feather duster. Could also be a small type of anenome. Need a better shot. (I would say feather duster though)

No that is not a feather duster, it could be an anemone but My best bet is it is a small baby brain or plate coral... these are soooo common on Gulf rock and Florida Rock its not even funny!... if its attached to the rock and you can see a skelton its attached to it is, if not then its some type of ... anemone... but My bet is for the coral!

Are you looking inside the black circle? :thinking:

I found something similar in my tank. I'm not sure what mine is. It has a weird round base that is dark in color, and then the clear white tentacles emerging from the middle. I always wanted to know what it was, but I can't get a picture.

Looks like Hidden Cup Coral to me.
THANK YOU BANG GUY, WE ARE REALLY THE ONES WHO KNOW WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT!!!
This is NOT a feather duster, nor an anemone... I myself have had hundreds of these things on liverock... they are baby corals of some sort... in the developing stage... Once again I say, IF it has a base that is calcium based that is attached to the rock, which btw it is very obveous if it does, since the creature is transparent, then it is INDEED a coral "baby" of some type!
Sorry if I seem a little testy, but you would be to if people were making jokes like
"are you sure your looking inside the black circle" and such...
BANG GUY, could you elaborate a little more on this subject on coral babies on rock....
Thank you!
Hope this helps!

I had something that looked just like that in my tank. 007 told me that it is astrangia - and when I looked it up on google, that is EXACTLEY what it was.
