So I saw one of these clear things on the glass yesterday. Looks like they have a bunch of dots where its attached to glass and then a long clear strand kind of just swings off into the water. There are several today.
What are these their everywhere

does the long clear strand retract at all if you disturb/poke it with something?

No they dont do antrhing when disturbed. there were 5 of them all near the new zoa I have. It came with some kind of algae I hardcore scraped off and put back. Could it be from the 2 polyps I pretty well killed getting algae off?

The tank is only like 3 months old I've already had a trochus snail hatching and stomatella snail hatching, both hitchhiked either on snails/crabs or chaeto. I did my best to just get them out.

I also got bristle worms (only 1 I let him live) , asterina stars (only 2 I let them live), and a **** load of spirorbid worms that I really hate but not sure how I'd ever get rid of those at this point. I started with dry rock to avoid hitchhikers bought 2 things got them all anyway lol.
