Any know what those red tube clusters and clear tubes are?

I can't see the picture - but did you get the rock at AquaticCritter? If so, sounds like what they told me was "Star Coral".

The clear tubes is it a tunicate? You might wanna check chucksaddiction.com he has a decent hither I'd site....

May be Hydroids? If So you will want to get them out as they are very invasive and will spread quickly to Plauge Proportions.

Does it look like this?

If I had to guess I would say a type of tunicate but I'm not really sure. Very interesting though.

Can majano be red? Looks like some small anenome type species or possibly jellyfish pods of some.sort maybe I can't get a good look at if they have individual tentacles or if its a polyps style thick jelly structure.

The red ones look like gatlin guns sticking out of the rock the clear ones have kinda a t shape at the ends 2 holes on sides like a T .. no jennie that pic isn't what I have

I did have tunicates on my live rock from AC - they were clear with a voilet-purple rim at the top of each siphon. They were really pretty. They went away though. Not entirely sure someone didn't eat them!

They looked like this (lousy, burry picture though).
