Sorry if some of these are obvious - I'm new :)

Looking for an ID on some things on my new live rock:


1 ) What's this orange guy? He appears to be able to move around

2) This is a bad picture, but any idea on this crab? Is he reef safe? I put him in my sump for now.

3) Is this just a red sponge, or what's this? I have a few of these

4) Pretty awful picture... but what's this purple stuff?

5) I put this shrimp in my tank, so I hope you guys don't give me bad news... Any ideas?

Thanks for the help!
 
Pic 2 ..... Crab.....trouble.....will attack slow movers, snails, fish, corals....
Pic 4.......decorator crab.........trouble.
Pic 5.....Shrimp, can't see his coloration clearly so if red back with white stripe....skunk cleaner and if reddish lines all over body, peppermint....both great for reefs or fish only provided the tank mates are not aggressive or large.
 
Thanks for the help allendehl, just to confirm, by the first one, do you mean the orange thing in my very first link in my first post, or whatever is crawling on my red sponge in my 2nd post?

Thanks! I hope i don't need to remove him, cant find him at the moment...

I meant this. A Florida conch.

I don't think is urgent but read about it. It's not safe. When you see it pull it.
