What are some of the more interesting creatures that you have gotten from your live rock?

So far, I've seen a bunch of copepods, a stomatella, a tiny turbo snail, and a small brittle star but my tank has only been running for 2 months.

I'm wondering what some of you have gotten from within your rock!
 
I got a mantis shrimp, and a few polyps or zoanthids.

I've read posts about people finding small fish hiding out in the rock.
 
So far I've seen about 4 stomatellas, a mini brittle star the size of a quarter, and a fireworm or bristle worm. Haven't seen too much else yet. I'm about to go look though.
 
I found a unidentifyable crab. I've looked everywhere and cant find a picture of it. It got eaten by a snowflake eel I had(I think thats what happend to it).
 
I've had tanks for almost ten years now... and everytime I think I know everything that's in my tank I see something new. That's what makes this hobby so interesting to me.
