Please help me identify some random things that showed up in my tank *56k warning*
Hello all,
I have a fairly new Reef Tank..it's been setup for about 4 months. A few items have appeared which I did not introduce into the tank and I was wondering your you all could help me identify these items and tell me whether or not they are bad for the tank. Thanks in advance for any help. Item 1: This pink coral looking item that started growing in between my yellow corals:  Item 2: This pile of black stuff thats on the underside of my liverock:  Item 3: This zebra striped item thats sitting on my life rock in between some coral:  Thanks again, -Ed

1. Anthelia, maybe xenia. hard to call.
 2. some form of bubble algae. possibly Valonia sp.  3. more than likely it is a Sundail Snail. they will eat your zoos, so remove ASAP! once removed, look at the flap that covers the snail when closed. if it is pointy, kinda cone shaped, its a Sundail get rid of it!

OK thanks for the info guys. I'll pull the snail and keep it in the sump until I can do more research on it.

Sorry for the fuzzy pics, I tried to size them down but I guess I hurt the image in the process. My Kodakphotogallery ones seem to be sized down without much issue, here's a link to the album, no logon required.
