I recently setup a fuge in my sump. Was moving some of the dead plugs a LFS gave me to give it a kickstart and saw these.
(Sorry for the horrible pics, but i just don't have a camera that is worth a crap)
I assume they are just generic fans or tubeworms??
Thanx in advance

First picture looks like a Pulsing Xenia can't tell what other pic is
Ayup, googled and this is just what they are, Thank you. Should I leave 'em in the refugium, or place in the DT? Also, the 1st pic is moments after I unburried it from being under the mud, so I wonder if the color will intensify.
Also, this is a very young tank, just at 1 month, and I am heading in the direction of LPS and SPS....eventually. Could the health of these be used as a barometer for possibly adding, at least, LPS early than I planned? 8 month to a Year is what I intended.
Thanx again

They are a hardy soft coral and do well in all sorts of tanks but if they start to grow they can spread and literally take over a tank.
