I apologize for the large pics but it was the only way to capture such tiny stuff.

Isopod?

Baby nasarius?

If I am wrong and any of these needs to go, please let me know!

Thanks!

Looks to me like vermitid snails. They can be a nuisance to corals around them. They coat the area around them with slime to collect food, which aggravates the corals.
 
Hello! Newbie here, inherited a fairly mature tank. Couple of pictures, perhaps someone can help me identify?
First is maybe 1/2" across. Aptasia?

This is a little smaller, maybe 1/4".

My toadstool (name is Blob) is Loki g bad. He sometimes get at least 7-8" across, but has been molting and looking bad for about a week and a half. Not there is one finger that seems to be peeking up but the rest of him seems to be in poor shape. Other smaller toads seem to be doing fine, molting and getting bigger. Thoughts?
