I honestly have no clue where to post this, but if you know of a better thread, let me know! So I recently started seeing these little orange/yellow cylinder things pop up on one rock of mine. I think it may be a sponge, or a type of coral? And then there are these little flattened bubble looking things that I think may be a type of algae or another sponge?? They are black, white, and clear.

It honestly frustrates me that I have no idea what they are, mostly the clear things. Usually I can identify what I find coral and sponge-wise. But these jelly looking bubble things are weird and I can't find anything similar to them . GAAH
 
Looks like Colonial Tunicates in the 1st image.
 
Really? I haven't seen any clear tunicates before. They have a white ring around the opening.
