    I noticed some hitch hikers on my live rock That I am looking for help identifying. I've looked for a while online and cant figure out what they are. It appears to be some sort of filter feeder. So far I've found 3 of them. Pics below.

    I use to have them in my skimmer. When I upgraded I lost them all. Many one day they'll come to visit.

    Yeah I was pretty sure they weren't bad. It's cool to find new life that I didn't add.
