Show Off Your Hitchhikers :)

[Baby Ray]

Everyone has threads about showing off corals and fish but I thought I would mix it up!!!!!
Wish I could start this off but I haven't been lucky enough to come across any good hitchhikers (yet)

This decorator crab came on a Kenya tree coral. The long appendage (nose) is made of algae. When I first found him there were two pieces of what looked like grass attached in the same place.
lol I had one heck of a time identifying him.

One of my favorites, here he is riding my Slippery tongue coral like a horse. Decorators are awesome when they're out and about which is rare. Kinda like a box of chocolates, yah never know what you're gonna get.

Here he is the day I got the Kenya tree. He was so small at first I thought he was a piece of the coral that had broken off. Lucky I noticed him at all.

I'm not sure if this is a Hitchhiker or not. It's on the shell of my snail. Can someone tell me.

These guys just popped out the live rock after we bought our lighting. Any idea I have been trying to find a way to id them online. Thought I would try here before I make a long trip to the aquarium store.

This kind of looks like a type of pest anemone so I would be safe and remove it.

Yours looks to be an aiptasia, acually very common on snail/hermit shells as they benefit from the host feeding.

That is a great picture
How big was he when you found him?

Here's my mantis...

I have always liked mantis shrimp. I have seriously considered keeping one because they are so cool!!! Very lucky find

Not sure if this falls in the showoff your hitchhikers category but my nem babys like to hitchike around on my trochus snails lol

I have never seen that before!!!!! I would think the anemone would get stress out by the fluctuating conditions .
