Default What kind of Creature is this??
I recently recieved some live rock from a friend. The rock has been in several different aquariums over the past 10 years and is full of all sorts of little critters. I have identified most of the life on these rocks, but was curious as to what these may be. They look like some sort of small bubble-tip anemone. When I turn the lights on they do have their tentacles stretched out looking for food. Tell me what you guys think.





Some more on another rock...


Thanks for the help!!
