ID please but no pic

Hey guys, I dont know what sort of pest this thing is but it lives inside my DSB in my refugium. There are 2 of them and they are alive.

They look like a milky white feather duster spider thing. I just tried touching it and it went back into the sand.
Does anybody know this thing is?

I could try getting a pic of it but its in the back of my fuge. My camera can't really focus onto it too well.

Is this thing good, bad, or i shouldn't worry about it?

Oh no man, thats bad news. Those milky white feather duster spider things are the WORST.

They start by eating your clean up crew one by one, then get to work on your corals with a fish snack in between every now and then. The ONLY way to actually kill them short of nuking the entire tank is with a large bore handgun........at least a .45. They will laugh anything smaller off.












sorry.....I should go back to bed......

no idea, but I doubt it is harmful. No pests I can think of come to mind

Hi!
Perhaps, even a bad picture can help.
But i think it´s harmless in the refugium.

K guys i picture of this sucker.
Both of them.

Can anyone ID this?

 

[GerritM]

It looks like a very tiny Sandanemone. Whichever????

 

[ReeVo]

Looks like something like that.

Does anybody know the actual name of it?
Do you think it will be a problem?

 

[ReeVo]

Can someone tell me a little something about this thing?
Like a name, or if it is a problem?

To live in a 'fuge? And since those are not feather dusters...?

This whole "buy a fish to fix a problem that might not even be a problem" is getting kinda silly. It's almost like the answer to everything is "buy a fish!"

+1 ^ Do not get a Copperband. Or any other for that matter.

ya im not putting angle inside my fuge lol

I Doubt it would fix it though. Seems like an anemone but not sure if it's a good or bad one?
It hates the light because I eachtime I turn it on, they both slowly start going back into the sand.
