User is unfamiliar with the creature they are dealing with. So asking for an answer as soon as possible is not unjustifiable. But it looks like @ndrwater nailed the ID ;)

I see most normal hitch-hikers. Can remain or you can start with stars. They multiply quickly by simply breaking off one of their legs and growing into a new one and often. The work is a bristleworm. They keep the bedding opened/loosened. I personally don't want them in my tank.
 
any idea what those red tubes / spikes on my rocks are?
Vermatid snail. Not sure why they call them snails. They send out a long mucus string to snag food then reel it in to eat.
