Worm and.... something else?

[LbulletM]

First, saw this worm on my glass. Hope it's nothing nefarious because it's no longer there and I have nooooo idea where it went. Can always be on the lookout if necessary, though.

 

 

 

Then, I'm assuming these are maybe a type of feather duster?

 

 

And finally,sponges? The translucent things.

The worm is harmless, the feather dusters are cute and also harmless, and the translucent things are either sponge or solitary tunicates. If you can watch them expand/contact as they filter feed, probably tunicates.

 

Congrats on the rose coral in the background! Don't let your temperature spike. I killed mine ;~;

You're awesome :-)

 

I love my rose corals! Haven't had a temperature spike, but it did drop down to about 74 with my 100w heater (29gal) when it started getting cold here. Threw in a cheapy zarco 50w until a new 150w came in. I have two roses now thanks to an accidental second shipment of rock. Original on the left, newer on the right.

 

 

The first one came in looking like this (Day 4 - 11/26/16:

 

 

Looking much better now!

Looks awesome! Oh man, the way the rocks are just sitting makes me think of a lagoon setup..

 

Make sure that when you vacuum, you get under those rocks!

Haha actually adding my dry rock and clean up crew tonight along with a water change to reduce the ~20ppm nitrates left over from my cycle :-) Planning on leaving work in a half hour.
