hmmmm....do a google search on hydroids....see if you can find a similar picture. I've never had them so I can't say if that's what it is.
Also, you can post the pic on projectdibs and someone there may be able to help you.

Hydrozoan IDs at wetwebmedia:

ID FAQ 1
ID FAQ 2

Look about 40K% down on page 2...search for Staurocladia oahuensis. Look similar?

If so, you can do a search at their site on the web for more specific info.

Looks like a hydroid to me. As long as you don't have dwarf seahorses I think you are fine as those can sting them.

It's a type of jelly fish and NO good get them out when you see them. Go to http://home2.pacific.net.ph/~sweetyu...itchworms.html I think is the link I will look in to the link.

Thanks for the ID's that seem to be Staurocladia oahuensis and I have revomed the ones I seen.

THanks again
