This might be a long shot but anyone know what these growths are on the underside of my rock with star polyps? Came as a hitchhiker a few months back. Thought it maybe was a sponge but wasn’t sure about the tube like appendages sticking out. They are a light greenish yellow color.

Its definitely a darkness type creature. Hard to tell what it is. Can you get a closer pic?

Here’s another pic. This is as good as I can get with the zoom on my phone.
