New popups in tank that need ID

[Vaesive]

Good afternoon everyone!

Inspecting my tank today I noticed 2 new things in my tank and I wanted some expert opinions on IDs instead of what I think they are.

Please forgive the awful cell phone quality. I circled the critters in red; hopefully it helps.

Is this some sort of aiptasia? It's attached to the edge of my Blasto and doesn't seem to sway with the current much.

another angle

Unfortunately, this one was the most difficult to get. It's right near the edge of the tank that is right up to a wall and the camera focus' on the snail eggs It seems like a feather duster. Has a white tubular body and it's crown (if it's a FD) is white with redish stripes. It retracted quickly why the flash from the camera went off. It's currently bunking up with my Zoas and not putting out any streamers.

Any and all input would be greatly appreciated!

Got some additional images of the thing on the zoas

Retracted after flash went off but you can really see the tube

Yes, those are Aiptasia in both the first and second picture. That white tube your seeing is a harmless feather duster. Those little white things on the glass are Spirorbid worms. (harmless)

Thank you for your reply!

And yes, those are worms. My brain said snail eggs as I had just cleaned some off the tank edge earlier today.

Thank you for the ID's, looks like I'll be having my first war with Aiptasia >.<

Also, I'm worried about the treatments for the Aiptasia since it is directly on my blasto. Will I probably lose him? Any recommendations?

If there just on that one frag plug then take it out and burn them off with a cigarette lighter. This only takes a few seconds to do and the Blasto won't mind just as long as you don't hit it with the flame. GL.

Unfortunately, it's growing right out of the blasto itself; directly attached to it. I read through you link you provided and I may grab a peppermint shrimp in the hope that I get one that has a fondness for aiptasia...
