Are they hard or soft? Hard, maybe tube worms, soft maybe tunicates.

they move so they must be soft

Sounds like maybe a tunicate, I think I see the two openings that tunicates have.3872

yes there are two that I can see so far. I stuck the zoa group there with that putty stuff... and it's on a solid piece of rock... so it can't be coming out of the rock! lol!

Side note I also noticed a bunch of little feather dusters on my rock!
