Just discovered these wavy things on my rock. Strange thing is I haven't added anything new to this particular tank in at least 5 or 6 years and the tank is up for 10 years now. Any idea what they are? Whatever they are, they had plenty of opportunity to grow like a weed and didn't, so I'm not very worried. Tried to get the best video I could, but they are far back in the tank and my lens is crap. Looked around and didn't see any more anywhere either.

 
Video short and fuzzy as well as dark.
Could be colonial hydroids but could also be Yellow polyps

I thought about this too, but seems too small. They are like the size of acro polyps. Smaller than any zoanthids I have ever seen. If they do turn out to be yellow polyps I guess I can frag and sell them, heh.
