This!I believe the OP is referring to the small red spiky calcareous organisms known as 'Forams' (Foraminifera)
I had these once a long time ago and I liked them, too.

No. They are static. ThanksIts a little hard to see, its not vermetid snails?
No. They just look like branching red trees. ThanksIs it possible to get a clearer picture? Do they send out any type of web or anything?
Thank you.!!!!! Any idea how to keep them reproducing?They are forams indeed. Read the link that posted earlier for the details.
Hard tissue. Thank youIt's hard to see, I'm guessing you're talking about the maple leafy looking stuff? If so I'm going with a type of red algae. Is it soft or more hard tissue?
Exactly! Thank you so much!!! Beautiful indeed. I am impressed as I've only see them in well functioning established tanks.I believe the OP is referring to the small red spiky calcareous organisms known as 'Forams' (Foraminifera)

Agreed! Thank you again!When live rock was commonly available you would find these everywhere. Forams, tunicates and sponges were quite common and a welcomed hitchhiker back then, so count your lucky stars. Real live rock makes all the difference in the world for acquiring biodiversity and one of the magic ingredients to a really successful tank, but I’m kinda old school in that mindset. Enjoy your extra critters, a welcomed guest indeed.
