Hey everyone,
Just recently set up a new reef tank with some live rock and noticed this little guy. Shaped almost like a virus cell or an egg sac, you can see it has attached itself to the rock with multiple tendrils to hold it in place, does anyone know what this is? Maybe a sponge? If you...
So this little anem came in on my seaweed for the refugium. No clue what it is (a condy maybe) looks brown in regular light glows red in blue light. Really just no clue. Very long tentacles.
I see multiple things on my glass, my tank was empty for over a month except for all my inverts (no coral just hermits and snails) and I just added some new fish and noticed all these weird critter/things on my glass. Any idea what they are? I’ve had tiny little white worms on my glass for...

those white spots on the glass (I think it’s hydroids);
these white hair on the live rocks;

Any idea what I’m working with here? It’s on the glass and there’s nothing similar on/near my montis. Looks almost like a berghia to me, but I’ve never had them.
I’ll try and get a better photo of the top.
TLDR: How should I proceed in dealing with this tank now that I know it has parasites but have no idea what they are?
Objective: obtain a species ID(s) of the shape/color changing flatworm-like creatures.
Pertinent details: similar (but not identical) infestation's crashed 2.5 of my previous...
