Found another critter I believe in this tank.

It looks like a white ball with thin spikes - it's kind of hard to see in the picture but you can sort of see the spike looking parts over the blue in the background.

Here's a picture:

I was thinking it may be some kinds of sponge but I'm not sure.

Thanks for any help!

Awesome. I'll have to research him!

I feel like identifying these should be easier but googling 'white spiky ball reef' came back with a lot of stuff!

Not sure if that's a pineapple sponge.
Can you take a pic from another angle.
Thank you!

Even though it's a fuzzy picture, my bet is pineapple sponge as well.

It's in a tube in my live rock I would have to pull it out to get another angle.
