EYES finally open !

Ya, hitch hiker.. I have seen them the entire time I have had my reef setup.. but in the last few years I really haven't gone into "night viewing mode" until you all started it! Phhhhht!!!! Last night I started looking and noticed that my 6 or so of those little things are now about 60+. I had a bad feeling about them, but kinda hoped someone would eat them or they would die.. nope.. they have survived and multiplied.
 
Yep, before I saw the photo you posted I was going to guess a ball anemone. I have two different types in my tank, an orange ball, and a clear one with flourscent green balls. I don't have a photo of the later, but I do of the former. They are eating here so don't look flat, otherwise they do.:

By the way, that hitchhiker link is in the library post in my blog, found in the advice to newbies section. There are two other id pages there as well. I need to add Chuck's site to it too but I want to convince him to change his page background so it is easier to read. :lipssealedsmilie:

yes, they'll do that. I keep some as I like them, but I do control the population by injecting them as you would with aiptasia.
 
Ok, I did some looking around and these are what I think I have besides the worms or stars or what ever all those things were, some were striped so I kinda think they were not worms...but couldn't tell color since the light was red, and one was more fuzzy looking the spiky like the worms...anyway these are what I am pretty sure I saw

Oh, yeah...I did see a snail, reminded me of a trumpet snail. Then there was this one "leg" I just saw it...and the lights are on, it was purple with a pinkish color at the end?? I got the m/glass just to see if I could see the mysis shrimp and right by them where all this time I thought was some sort of furry algae it is actually these things they are like a orangish/red ring with long "hairs" coming off the ring all the way around it in like a group?
