Multitasking ID

[mch1984]

Ok, I'm sure everybody gets tired of the ID post so I am going to do three in one to get it over with all at once. I hope the pictures are good enough to help, they are small little critters and not all that easy to get a pic of. If you could just tell me if they are good, bad, meh, or whatever that would be awesome. Thanks for taking the time.

Exhibit A - started showing up a week or so ago. Didn't think much about until I noticed things coming out of them

Exhibit B - Assumed it was part of the rock until today when tenticles, feelers, or something like that started coming out of it. I went to take picture and its like it knew i was there and sucked them back in.

Exhibit C - I'm pretty sure I know this one which makes me proud lol. I think this is a pineapple sponge, but wanted to confirm.

Does A look like these? https://www.lionfishlair.com/hitchhikers-guide/hydroids-colonial/

B is probably either a feather duster or vermetid snail. Does it release a snot like web syringe feeding time or a flower/fan thing that goes in and out?
C would be a pineapple sponge.

It hasn't released any discharge that I've seen. I thought maybe a feather duster, but wasn't sure if they retracted their head that often or only if being disturbed.

So the vermetid from my understanding should be removed. Can I just use tweezers?

spionid, they are fine right? Same family has the feather duster right?

sponge i don't need to worry about right?
