Hi,
FIrst post. This is a superb site!

Was examining frag plug with branching hammer using a magnifying glass, in preparation for popping it off, and saw this little polyp. Its total 1.0mm including the tentacles.

Pictures are fuzzy, but thats the maximum zoom my phone can do

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Hi and welcome to reef2reef! Glad you like reef2reef.
It looks like it could be a hydra as their are many varieties. It could also be an anemone that has bleached due to reduced light. Hard to really tell with the pictures being blurry.
Best of luck to you
