Help!

There is something hiding in a piece of rock around 20 zoa heads on it. It is definitely living cause when I tried to remove it, it went further in hole, it has long green tentacles. Can anyone ID it, I think I am just going to give the rock a freshwater dip, that should kill it right?

I would wait on the FW dip put the coral in the sump and try and get a better picture so we can ID it.

I wouldn't freshwater dip the coral. If it's not irritating the coral then I would wait until you get a clear picture of it so others can give you an ID. It could be harmless and beneficial.

Sorry for double posting.

As mentioned, wait to get an ID. Could be something as great as a brittle star, but hard to know. Plus if its really up in there, killing it would most likely not get it out of there.

Sorry for the wait, but I fixed it, in a way in the mix of a water change I lightly tapped the rock again at the glass, and it came out enough for me to get it with tweezers, not a baby brittle star, more like a bug with weird tentacles, but anyway thanks for the info

I’d rather be safe than sorry

Did you get a picture of it? I'd be interested in seeing what it is. Especially if I (or someone else) gets one as a hitchhiker some day.

Sadly no but I have a picture of part of it
