Identifcation Of This Random Guy.

While hunting for my Bubble Tip I found this thing, I don't think it's a aiptasia, but I did have one in my tank without knowing for about a week. It doesn't look like one either but I do not know any better. Please let me know. Sorry I am a newbie and do not know these things yet.

That looks more like the fan of a tube worm. They are also called feather dusters.

Not sure will leave for others but looks like a possible Manjo? Could be a feather duster.

That was my 2nd guess but I had never seen one up close before. Glad to know thank you. These guys are of no major concern, right?

Feather dusters a harmless filter feeder. I like them personally. Never seen a feather duster (tube worm) like that though.

I'll make sure to watch it and update, I had 2 baby feathers on one of my rocks but I ended up scraping the rock bc there were so many snails and stuff on it did NOT want. I would assume it spread from them. This rock was dry when I bought it so.

I also just noticed a 2nd one so I will be removing the rock to inspect it, just want to know what I am dealing with here.

After some further inspection there is a decently long brownish tube and there are 2 "heads" leading off the tube. I also found my bubble tip, which is good.

Any thoughts on confirmantions?

Pest anemones dont have tubes and they squat when they retract. They don't withdraw into a tube.
Not sure what that fine piece of modern art is supposed to be.
What I see in your original pic is something like these

there are 1000s of kinds of tube worms
