Hello, my husband and I had wanted a salt water aquarium for a few years now. We read article after article and watched video after video. So we finally decided to start the hobby. We now have a 32 gal Biocube. We replaced the lid with AI lighting and things are either getting larger or multiplying. We have several kinds of corals and fish and one anemone. We started our tank approximately 6 to 8 months ago.
I have noticed for the first time , over the last week or so, some critters in our tank. We have around 10 new pineapple sponges, 1 feather duster worm, and some that I am not sure what they are. Here’s the three I can’t identify. Would anyone mind helping me figure these out.
Thanks, Kim

Welcome to R2R! First picture is a vermetid snail, second is a snail of some type, and last one looks like an abalone snail possibly? Welcome to the forum :)

Welcome to reef2reef! The tube thing is a feather duster, nothing to worry about! And the snail is a nassarius, also very beneficial.
