I do have hydroids in my tank. Is it possible the yellow polyps are those? I was looking through a hitchhiker forum to try and find the name of the red filter feeder and came across this picture grouped with the hydroids that looked a bit similar.

I was actually taking pics of them earlier because they created this weird spiderweb looking formation on my glass behind my overflow

I thought the glass had somehow been scratched when I first saw it

Yes, but not too aggressively, I can't be bothered to cut the lawn myself, I need them.
My neighbors Gardner starts the machines at 7am on the dot every Monday morning.

I don't care if it's Allowed, imo it's rude as all get out.

Idk why they were here so early today, they usually pull up right as I'm leaving for work. If it's a normal day they show right at 930ish, if I'm closing they show right around 1230ish. I guess it makes sense they were here around 7 since I'm off. It's a weird skill for sure.

Does anyone know what the red growth on the lobo in pic #2 is? My tanks just full of mysteries lately yet it’s doing better than ever. I love the natural reef feel it gives the tank
I think the red things might be foraminifera or "forams". I think they are considered good as small filter feeders and a food source for some fish/critters.
