Feather dusters?

[Susan Edwards]

I was tank watching, checking my corals, and saw this on my zoa/polyp frag. They appear to be feather dusters as when the scooter blenny climbed on top of them, they pulled back into their tubes. Are these okay?

I had a Hawaiian Feather duster. It lost its crown and it hasn't grown a new one. One of the nassarius snails was bugging the heck out of it and trying to get into the tube! Not sure if it is still alive or not.

No idea where these two came from. First time I've seen them is today.They are very tiny and each has a small white tube it zips into when disturbed. Could they be babies of the one I had or still have if alive still?

Yes, they look like hitchhiker feather dusters. No, they're not babies.
