red spotted thing id?

[organism]

I can't figure out what the hell this thing is
it's puffy, small, and red with black dots, and there's two of them, dunno if they're spreading or not...
here's some pics, any and all input is appreciated

 

[organism]

sorry about the loch ness monster pic quality, it's hard to get a pic of something that small... well, for me anyways...

Do they move? Nudi? if not some type of sponge maybe?

 

[clarkiiclo]

Does it appear to have a distinct center?

 

[organism]

it def has a larger black spot on the center, and as far as I can see they don't move, but have grown a decent bit

Could be a bristleworm. They tend to look like that when they're all drawn up. Just a thought.

:notsure:
I dunno man, they don't move and they're pretty... poofy

It looks like a mushroom of some sort.
Does it retract if you mess with it?

 

[organism]

not really, they stay about the same consistent size throughout the day

 

[clarkiiclo]

Do you have any other mushrooms?

 

[organism]

yeah, on the other side of the tank, they're doing nice, but these things were here before I got those I think. also, these are more globular, like if I had to guess I'd say sponge or something to that sort, like it's not a layer as much as mushrooms are, if that makes sense, as much as a single little blob

 

[clarkiiclo]

How odd. I have to say I dont have a clue what they are.
It is hard to tell.
Sorry

 

[organism]

it's cool man, thanks for your help anyways

 

[organism]

Take your camera with a telephoto and take a shot of it. If what I think it is you should see a couple of small holes on either end of it. Some have in the middle when they are this small, but if they do then it is a sponge of some kind. If it is hard and can be broken off you may have an sps trying to liven up your aquarium.
