Yep....hairy mushrooms. Thats quite the mushroom rock you have going there Babs.
Ricordia have these little ball things instead of hairy things. Pardon me if all that technical talk is confusing.
Here are a couple ricordia pics

I've had an expert at my house looking at them and feeding them bits of clam.
Verdict is.........He doesn't know what they are.So we're settling on genetically modified palys.

sounds like a plan, BUT IF they are majano anemonies you will want them out sooner than later. cant really get a good look at them, so they very well could be rock anemonies. any way to get a closer and brighter pic ??
