I was checking my curring live rock to day and found a surprise. I think it may be a curlycuqie. If it helps to ID, my rock is from the Florida keys area.

Some type of glass anemone. I had them on my FL rock too. I just made epoxy tombs for the couple I found. Better safe than sorry.
 
Looks like a baby urchin to me. Does it move or is it stationary?

I'm new to reefs. Are glass nems bad for reefs?

So far it hasn't moved. I'll keep an eye on it.
 
it looks like a variant of aptasia... if so they're bad because they will proliferate at a very high rate taking over your tank they also pack a punch stingwise and will injure other corals plus they will move and will be very hard to get out once they find a nice little nook or cranny.
