You added coral or it's a hitch hiker? How did/are you cycling? Pics would also help.

feather dusters harmless

Is it corals or just something that you get in a marine tank

i don't think it's feather dusters. i believe it's green star polyp or star clove. either way, it's a softie coral that's very hardy.

not a coral but a cool looking tub worm
absolutely harmless

get another pict if you could turn off your blues use just the whites while taking pict

Those definitely aren't feather dusters.

I agree with the assessment of them being clove polyps.

The first one does look like green star polyps and the second clove. Neat little corals to get as hitch hickers...

The first looks like green star polyp and the other looks like exina to me.

It is always nice to believe that am a fish too .. For at least an hour each time

Just cycle as normal, they aren't really anything special as far as coral goes tbh. They might live or they might die.
