Just noticed this small brown thing with white/blue tipped tentacles on the glass of my NPS tank. Any clue what it could be? Sorry photos aren’t the best but curious if anyone recognizes this?
Thanks

Hard to say for sure from the pics, but possibly a Swimming Anemone, Boloceroides mcmurrichi?
That would make sense. I just checked and it is still in the same spot so I’m guessing it has a foot like an anemone.
