I'm not sure on the first & third pic either. Could be a mushroom, could be an anemone. If it's a pest anemone you'll have time to get rid if it later. Try feeding it with a meaty piece of seafood and describe what it does.

im pretty sure its not an anemone (have about 8 of those trying to get rid of them day by day), had another on the rock it slowly unstuck itself and drifted away (died?) with the right light the tips of each little "arm" is a bright bright green. ill try feeding it something, regarding the dusters, will they survive my cycle? they seem more than happy at the moment. need to see how and if they reproduce would be awesome to get more of them on the other rocks

also i have one strange, very thin thing similar to a duster only difference is that the little hairs that come out of the rock are rainbow colored when you shine light one them (like a mini fiber optic cable, if that makes any sense?), ill try taking a pic and posting it tomorrow but im not that confident that the shot will be any good.

Looks like a hairy mushroom of some sort. Doesn't look like a anenome to me at least, it will be tough to keep them all alive but I'm keeping my fingers crossed for ya buddy.

you said something about ur anmonia being high....might be ur test kit being old. Also u can do small water changes during the cycle period! This is known as a soft cycle and should keep things alive !
