Lastly I have this on my Duncan now. Is this a new head forming?? My premium snowflake wanted to be in this photo so bad!! Haha

Pictures 1-2 are just a filter feeder sponge. No worries
Picture 3 is a stomatella snail. A reef safe algae eater. A great CUC
Not sure about the last picture. Maybe a new head starting to grow? Dose it move?
 
Hey baby ray it hasn't moved but today it looks more circular. This photo was taken yesterday.
 
Have you tried touching it? Is it hard?
Maybe they are nassarius snail eggs.
Do you have that type of snail?
 
I agree with Baby Ray on the sponge and the stomatella! and if that bump looks more circular, I'm thinking a new head is forming. That seems like the place I've seen them pop out.
 
First pic is a sponge. Not sure the species.
Second pic is a stomatella snail.
Not sure on the third.
 
I have a couple of baby turbos that hitchhiked and these guys not sure what type of snail they are but they seem to stay clear of the Duncan ..

My guess is that whatever is on the duncan is a new head forming. Keep an eye on it though :)
