A small bivalve of some description. A clam. It will eat phyto, if that's what it is.

it opens up, it has curly things inside, it does sting if you touch the inside, i think thast what i touched

like a bristleworm, the spines are tiny, clear, dont feel them at first, when you rub horizontally, it KILLS

BTW what was that pic taken with?

in the first one all i see is a black screen

the second is the thing, with a white frame?

I have some of those on my rock, they're just some type of bivalve. Keep it, it won't hurt anything. Plus it means you may actually have "live" rock.
