I would assume a Pod of some sort, but is it my fear of a Cirolanid?

Did the wild live rock from Florida, no fish in the tank yet. Aplogies, don't have a macro lens for my DSLR yet.

The Cirolanid was my first guess but per the pictures on Lionfish Lair, the eyes aren't the same but the body looks about right. Sphaeromatid has similar eyes, but the tail does not match (Sphaero points in, while in the picture the tail fans out). BTW, on the first picture, ignore the one on the right, it's a reflection off the glass.

Looks like pineapple sponge to me . If it is than they are beneficial filter feeders , found a lot in newer tanks
