ID of unknown sea life

[WSI2406]

Hello All,

I'm posting this here as I have a NPS tank, and have a feather Star. I think that it is baby Feather Stars, but I'm not too sure. I have handfulls of the thing in the pics. They are about the size of a pencil eraser.

Thanks for any help.

Looks like Hydroid jellyfish.

+1 On the hydroid jellies. Lots of people don't like them, but I had one for a little while and thought he was neat. Even brought him into my biology class to look at under the micoscope when we were on the marine invert section of our book (uber extra credit? lol). I only ever had the one I believe, and when I re-released it back into the tank I never saw it again.

Yes, it´s a Nausithoe sp.

Thank all for the ID's. I assume they cause no harm to any other corals/life??
