What is this...???

Hi just set up a 10 gallon saltwater about 2 weeks ago. It has 20 lbs live sand and about 12 lbs of live rock. Every day my wife and I find something new on the rock. I've read this is one if the best parts of the new tank so as of now we have seen some feather dusters and a couple other little things. To day I found this. And don't know what it is. Any suggestions would be awesome.

I would point to a polyp of some sort. It's closed ip probably due to stress of some sort,



This is button polyp. That's my guess what it is

I agree. My bet would be a palythoa polyp.

So what should my course of action be for care as my tank is new and still cycling??? Thanks

Give it light and hope that it makes it through.
