Critter ID

[Yahdiel91]

Hello all! Going through my nightly routine of checking out the tank before bed since all the weird stuff come out at night.. So I've always noticed my frogspawn had this clear white shell looking thing but i just always see it in the same spot and never seen it move, so today i flashed my light at it and it closed shut.. Any idea of what it could be?

Also right above it there's another one but with black dots on but I've never seen that one move...... Yet.. if it can be id as well I'd appreciate it very much.. Thank you!

A bivalve and a sponge. The bivalve looks like a small clam and is light reactive. I have the same thing on one of my corals but mine is an oyster. Is the coral from Petco? By chance lol? Mine is.

Ohh gotcha! Im guessing its harmless? Doesn't seem to affect it in any way when its open during the day

i purchase all my corals from world of coral.

Oh I have some from there. It’s such an awesome store. Yes harmless. I’m waiting/hoping my little guy grows. I’ve been trying to think of a name and I’ve had the coral for a little while and the oyster survived being dipped too.

Best store I've been to so far, they're on the pricey side but everything is worth it there.. im about an hour from their store so i just make the trip for everything.
He fought his battle by being dipped, give em a hardcore name..

Love my mushrooms, basic coral but one of my favorites.. I highly recommend some of their zoa gardens... Fair price and they look amazing!

Oh. That’s a feather duster though? Or so I was told/thought and it hasn’t harmed anyone or become invasive I have a few others in my rock. No harm no foul.
