I saw two of these little guys floating around in the water column and pulled one out for a closer look. Looked like a cross between jelly fish, and starfish. I think it was dead, and I was unable to get a good picture of it. I put it on a slide and think maybe I squashed it when doing so. There’s some bands in the “legs” almost patterned like a brittle star
After doing a quick bit of short educating on hydroids, and seeing they colonize in rocks I knew they must be these weird little fuzzy things I noticed a couple weeks ago and have been keeping an eye on, guess I should probably take action? Should I cover these up with some putty?
Thanks in advance for any insight!
