Got a new crab that Ive found. Hes very small. Body is maybe the size of a pea and in total half the size of a dime. He's light grey, looks really cool. Eats a lot of algae. Ideas?

Also, we have this thing that looks stunningly like a baby tiger tail cucumber. But instead of being somewhat red its got a grey body and has white "spikes" that protrude slightly down its body.

Its very small though, like 1/4 cm wide including the spikes and Im not really sure how long it is. I only saw a portion of it that was maybe 3cm long so far but it could be a bit longer but I dont really think much longer.

It moved really slow so, at first I thought it was a bristle worm, but arent those fast? This thing meandered like a brittle star fish arm kind of. Anyone able to help me out? I wish I could take pics but theres no way with my POS camera.

Item 1: crabs are awesome but the sump may be the best home for them (look up porcelin, pom pom and emerald, those would be the only exceptions I would allow)

item 2: the featherdusters I think will survive the cycle just fine, almost all of mine did anyways

item 3: pics would help but you cucumber sounds to me more Like a bristle worm although it could really be a cucumber, I have one from my very first piece of live rock, but if you can catch it turn it over and look for tube feet that it will use to attach to whatever substrate it is on, if it's anything like mine it will try to hold on tight
