Jellyfish like thing

[Angelfish56]

So there is 5+ of them coming out of my rock and what is it

Extending from and still attached to the rock? Or leaving the rock? Big dif.

sounds like a jelly (they are not fish) thing coming from your rock, about 5+ of them I'd say

Hahaha oh my goodness


In all seriousness though, what color is it?

 

[Angelfish56]

White and this is the best I can get

 

[austinsdad]

Doesn't help. Can't see a thing in the pic. What about my earlier questions???

I'm betting on aiptasia. They can be really small to like 50 cent piece sized or larger. I have two huge ones that I let live because they're so cool looking when they are that size. I have a peppermint shrimp who munches all the many offspring. They have to be kept far away from corals because they can sting them but otherwise they are pretty harmless. Biggest problem is how fast the can take over your tank if you don't keep them in check. Again, Peppermint shrimps eat the small ones so that is a natural control factor, instead of all the chemicals and injections that are out there. They don't tolerate high alkalinity so if you have a system with creatures that don't mind high alk, you could try that, too. (Problem is, they could just go dormant and you wouldn't know it.) Hope that helps.

Aptasia sounds like a good bet. Poke it and see if it retracts.

A better pic would help a lot. Did you poke them or just look jelly like. I almost see some bubble algae (would be green round balls attached to rock) but really hard to tell with the pic. If that's what they are, not a good thing. If they are something with tenticles, maybe aptasia. Have you looked at?
