#1 Watermelon Mushroom
#2 tube worm
#3 is it hard or soft?
#4 Can't tell maybe brown polyps or hydroids?

[SleepyPirate]

Its soft and are any of them bad? I also have a Bristle worm its reddish its living inside a live rock is it a concern?

[Chowder]

#4 if it is hydroids which I can not confirm. Would need a clearer picture can be a problem. Try posting a clearer picture.


#3 woukld be some kind of soft coral (finger,devils hand) but would have to grow more to get a positive ID.


1,2,3 are not harmfull and are good corals.

Bristle worms are good scavengers you would not want to pick it up with your bare hands. They can cause a skin reaction but nothing to be concerned about.
