hitch hicker

Spotted this fleshy bubble looking thing growing from the skeleton on my torch. It’s the same color as the torch so I know it isn’t bubble algae. The pics aren’t the greatest but it’s glued down so it’s the best I can do for now. Any help on the ID would be appreciated.

Noticed these in my tank today, what are they, are they dangerous should I remove them?

Hello All, A while ago I purchased a turbo snail that had a strange clam looking hitchhiker. Didn’t think anything of it, but I found one at the waterline of my tank. It doesn’t look harmful, but I would like to know what it is. I am upgrading to a larger aquarium soon, and would also like to...

They are very small, 3 millimeters i would guess. They are white and skinny but they look like aptaisa, I have never seen them this small though. Also i can even see them sway in the currant. You have to have a flipper Magnifying veiwer, or a Magnifying glass. And now its been 2 months and...

This is my old dt I haven’t gotten to emptying yet but I noticed this on the glass never seen anything like it. Any idea what this could be ? I used the live rock from this tank hoping it’s not anything bad I just put in my new tank.

Hi everyone. I am new to reefing and I ordered this "clean" algae off Ebay. Long story short it wasn't that clean. Can anyone help me identify what this is?

Hi all, I have this Duncan for almost 6 months and was happy as can be. It even grew in size. I haven’t noticed any changes until today evening. I have 2 head missing all of the sudden without warning. I mean yesterday had all the 5 heads and today I have one completely missing an one seems...

Hello, Would really appreciate some help identifying this hitchhiker on my bird nest. It’s got two antennas which seem to be coming out of a polyp and coral has turned dark brown around it. Would a Coral dip help? Appreciate your guys help!

So I bought this cora and saw this under the frag, it kind of looks like some type of ugly paly to me, what do you guys think it is?

Hello all, I am very new to the reefing hobby. After finding R2R while looking for advice for building my 150G freshwater setup I have been bitten by the reef bug. I have changed course and will be making the 150G a reef setup instead of a Discus tank. However, I couldn’t even wait for the 150...

Picked up some live rock at lfs noticed this little guy on the rock. Can anyone help me identify what it is?

This thing is growing on my snail but can’t work it out what it is. If a touch it closes like clams it doesn’t seems to bother the snail but would be nice to know it is safe.

We ordered some Florida Cerith Snails and one arrived with something attached to its shell. I don’t think it’s aptasia because it doesn’t retract when you touch it or remove it from the water. It’s actually a bit stiff, maintaining its shape out of water. Apologies, my pictures aren’t the...

Hi! A couple of days ago I bought some coral from a local fish store. They have been closed up for the last couple of days, but are just starting to open up. However, on one of the pieces, there is somthing that looks like a small anemone. I think it is Aiptaisa, but I'm not entirely sure...

I was topping off my tank and noticed these little white specs crawling all over the glass. Not sure if they are good or bad, please help identify and share treatment plans if needed. Would be much appreciated thank you!

I’ll be transferring tanks soon and plan to use this live rock with these palys that hitchhiked on there. I don’t mind them, but I want to see if anyone is able to ID them and give advice on the best way to move the rock to the new tank safely. Thanks!

Wondering if this is a bristle worm.. I know I have some in here but this this is super fast and doesn’t seem like it is one, and if it is not a good one. Also, ignore the golden girls commentary in the background

Hi team, Just noticed this little fellow growing off the side of my Acan frag's skeleton looking for ID. Frag has been in the tank for about a week and a half and I've just noticed this fellow in the last 3 or 4 days or so. Any ID's or recommendations?

I recently purchased a aquacultured ORA Vargas Cespitularia and these strange acorn looking things are growing on the frag, I know they’re alive since I’ve occasionally seen them come out and retract

Sorry if this has already been answered! But can any one help me and tell me what these are?

So I noticed a new slug/snail in my tank that I most certainly have never seen. I haven't bought any new coral or rock in the past few months so I was surprised to see this. It almost looked like it could be a baby forming it's shell but I've never seen a baby snail so I have no clue. Any help...

I bought some wet live rock to start bio filtration quicker, and found this guy on him. What is it?

I have tons of these all over rock and want to know if their a pest, bad, or hurt anything? And if there’s any crab or fish to get rid of them. Setting up a bigger tank and I wanted to know if I should bleach the rock to get rid of them and start over

See these around the tank, I don’t know what they are?

Hi everyone, as with many we are new to Reef Aquariums. Just noticed this hitchhiker on my newer Zoas and wondering if anyone can help ID. Also are they bad ? Thanks
