bottom two pics corals?

[Fiddler]

just got this at a local store, great live rock with tons of feather dusters, and a few things i don't recognize


bristtle worm or whatever?

nice feather duster with another worm next to it

now for the ones i don't know


don't know if it's hard or soft, it appears soft, and i seen another one on the same rock

anenome, soft coral, i got at least half a dozen they all look the same, but some seem to "bloom" or let loose the tentacals at night.

i only have a single flouresecnt bulb, soon to upgrade, but how long will these things last with my lighting?

The last two pics look like mushrooms. I'm 80% positive on the second to last picture. And 55% positive on the last picture. Can you can a better pic of the last one? It could also be a majono anenome if it has tenticles.

The last one looks to be more like a Ball anemone....

Yes the second pic is a bristtleworm. The third one look like a mushroom for sure.

Does the next to last close up? If so, it could be some sort of LPS (if it has a skeleton that it withdraws into). Rub it and see what it does. The bottom pic looks like an LPS, too. They are called some sort of anemone, though they actually have a calcarous base/stalk that the tentacles come out of. I was thinking something different than ball, but thta could be what I've heard them called before. they are typically a lower light animal IME.

Hard to tell but the last one could be a Majano Anemone. Do a search on these to see if it's what you could have. Almost as bad as Aptasia.

I would put money on the bottom one not being a majano sp.....

Just to throw in my .02, the first unknown looks to be a rhodac sp. shroom. The last pic - maybe a light deprived ricordia shroom?? What do you think?

Sounds good so far. Bottom one looks like an anemone. Not a majano or aiptasia but more like a ball anemone from the carribean or strawberry from the pacific. Pretty similar either way, at least AFIK.

The one before does look like a Rhodactis sp.

Your light may be a little low if it's just a std flourescent. Even low for a mush. It'd be ok under pc's at least andyou could keep much more.
