Thank you! I actually went to the local big Al's after posting and they also said the one pic was turnicates and the other one a sponge so you were right! Tonight we added a cleaner shrimp 2 ninja star snails..2 scarlet hermetic crabs and 2 zebra torches snails for our clean up crew! Finally the tank isn't looking so bare!
 
Here is another hitchhiker we have in the tank that I need help identifying if anyone could please help...I'm hoping it's not Aiptasial!!!

Yes. Aptasia.

How can I be sure? I have been looking at other things on the internet that look very similar. Does aiptasia hide from light? Two of these things hide from it...one is under a rock away from light and extends more at night as I have been watching it at night with a flash light. The other one hides in a hole during day when light is on and also comes out at night!
