 I am still new to reefkeeping I am new to this site and reefkeeping but have really learned a lot from this site. I have a critter that showed itself in my live rock and I have no clue what it is. Any help would be appreciated.  |

| Re: I am still new to reefkeeping From that angle, it looks like a feather duster or anemonia majano to me. Does it come out of a small tube? If so, it's a feather duster and it's a good thing. If it comes out of a soft base, it's probably a anemonia majano and then you'd want to get rid of it.

| Re: I am still new to reefkeeping The rock it is on has about 50 feather dusters on it, but this guy is really big comparatively. It is about 1/2 inch across the top, and I see no shell or covering of any type. It seems to be nocturnal because it only comes out of it's hole at night. It is about 3/4 inch long when it comes out of its hole. I turned the rock so that it better faces the light but it just goes back further into its hole when the lights are on. It doesn't really seem to harm anything so far. Thanks |
