i know its hard to see but there in the middle of the pic

 

Nah, looks like hair algea, if it is (not sure) use a toothbrush.
Aptasia looks like

 

ok i tried to pluck it out but it sucked in its hole so now i have no clue?????

 

I can't really tell anything from those pictures. Can you get better ones?

 

If it's the little 5-tentacled thing in the center of the first picture..it's not aiptasia..they have the same general shape but are clear and stay really small..not sure what's they're called but I have a few in my tank..i don't think they're anything to worry about

Could be that too..either way..i wouldn't worry. You'll know an aiptasia when you see one. They're nasty.

 

I deleted my post because I really wasn't sure that's what I was seeing I'm starting to think that it's not a fan worm based on the shape of the animal. It may very well be a tiny bleached out aiptasia but I can't be positive.

 

yea its the thing in the first pic...did yours get any bigger or does it stay that size...and the second pic the things are so small its hard to get a pic

 

Boy, I tell you, I looked hard and see nothing resembling Aptasia. I see a lot of Vermetid Snails.

 

The ones in my tank haven't gotten any bigger..they stay around 2mm.
