Hello, I just finished setting up my first tank about 1 hour ago and noticed a few things I need help with ID. One I am pretty sure is aptasia becuase it tucks away really fast when my wavemaker hits it. It is attached to a portion of my rick that is under the sand and its climbed it way out. The other I have no clue and it does not tuck away or fold up if touched. Please forgive the cloudiness of the pics I really did put the live rock in about 1 hour ago so the water is not clear.

First one may be a feather duster; from what I can see it's "tentacles" look, well, "feathery".
Second one, I'm not sure. If that's an aiptasia, I've never seen one that color before. I'd leave it be until you can get a positive ID on it.

Looks like a feather duster and aiptasia to me.

I thought the bubbly tipped ones were majono.
When you go near it does it haul butt back into the rock??
