Nem hitchiker?

[NekoTwilight]

Hi all,

Just picked up a 6” or so black widow BTA. Three small hitchhikers came with it on a rock. Please see image. Looks like a mouth in the middle. Are these small BTAs? I assume so or the black widow would have killed them? Color seems different tho.

Thanks!!

Very hard to see under blues. Can you take photo under whites?

Hope this is better. Two photos plus a third of the second hitch hiker. Thanks!

That is my best guess too. At first thought may be stump of a stoney coral, but definitely looks like a soft foot.

Yeah, I thought coral too but they retract when poked. Should I try feeding them? They’re small but still worried about them melting.
