ID Me Quick Please!!!

[darkcirca]

So we got our live rock home. ID us before we go in the tank, please?!?

#1, funny looking soft thingie, scared me to death when I mistakenly touched it!

#2 Wormish thing?

#3 Another wormish thing?

#4 I'm spikey looking in a hole...

#5 Another worm thing in a hole

#6 this one looks neat

#7 Ballish things..

Any ID will help, please people. Good or bad as well because I want to get this rock in my tank asap (currently it's in a trash can full of tank water).

Thanks

I got rid of all the worms, decided i didn't want to deal with fireworms. They were fireworms, the one ******* almost got me. I screamed and flicked him off in the nick of time. Now all I have left is the nems, there are 2 on one rock, i put it in my tank and will take pics later

i will bet money on this so here we go
#1=anemone
#2= penutworm
#3= white penut worm or some other kind of Sipunculidea worm
#4 Bristle worm(they do come in red) doesnt look round enough to be fire worm
#5=bristle worm
#6=Anemone
#7 Sponge
bristle worms are good sand cleaners in moderation and the peanut worms are completely harmless cleaners.

WOW I got them all right A+ for ME!!!!!!!!!

I left the sponge and nens in there. There are actually 3 on the one rock. Once they open up some I'll post some new pictures. Any idea if they might be good?

Oh and the worms were EVERYWHERE. They took over. They had all this little pointy things. I think one got me..my arm hurts.

 

[Germanman]

yea the bristle worms can sting u they have silica spines with poison on each segment next to the parapodia.

Sponges good or bad you think?

Here's an open nem, sorry it sucks, the water is a little cloudy.

The one is centered and there is another at the far right of the picture as well.
