I think that is the image you wanted posted. I'm not sure what you are referring to though.

Can't tell much from that pic, (maybe a caulerpa runner?) but that's a big nasty aiptasia next to it...

That is one nasty aptasia on the right.. and to the left of it, are the "tentacles" of a spionid worm.

One in a tube shell:

One outside of the shell:

Some times you can see the calcerous shell jutting from the rock. Other times, the shell is in a hole in the rock and all you see is the opening and the two "feelers"

By the way, they are harmless and actually very good as part of the clean up crew. Now.. that nasty glass anemone *Shudder* IT scares me
