Got a pic? Might be a sponge.

In this link is it the second one in the row? If so it is called a pineapple sponge and they are good for your tank.

it looks similar to that, but is held on by what appears to be to 'legs' or attachments.. then it has a frilly head, like on that, but it isn't fuzzy on it's body and is more brown.

Very similar though..

I'll try to get a pic

Maybe they are dead ones. I know when I had a few die they turned color and got some algae on them. Look around that link though you might find something that matches better.

Since your tank if fairly new, I would bet it's the sponge in the picture that meco65 posted, it's a Scypha Sponge.
