Hello reefers,

I've discovered a few new creatures in my cycling tank. The first picture appears to be some type of sponge and the second two appear to be a couple of worms. Can anyone identify any of these? If so, are they beneficial or harmful? Thank you in advance!

The first may well be sponge. The second and third both look like mini-brittle star arms.

Better see a vet. :) Couldn't help it :)

They're nothing detrimental and probably very good for the tank. Free clean-up crew.
