It started like tiny white dot (i thought at first they were some parts of the tiny rock), but then grew, they sometime "close" like they breathe for a second.
Are they some kind of bivalve? Are they dangerous? I can't take better pics.

Unable to define because the image is grainy, but I doubt it's dangerous.
 
image is grainy
Yeah i know, its in a bad spot for a pic, but u can see in the first one, in the back, some black tentacles, cilia, idk what those are, but they are growing fast.
 
But it is stationary, and the only movement you see is opening and closing?
 
Yea I couldn’t see anything but the overall shape looks barnacle-y. Idk if @Tahoe61 was alluding to that already.
