looks like some weird parasite... i have three or four of them attached to different things. one is on my flowerpot another is attached to a rock with mushrooms and another my mushroom is attached to it.. it looks like it has a mouth and closes and opens if i touch it.. at first i thought my flower pot was growing another body but it doesnt seem to be turning into a flowerpot.. then i purchased a hairy mushroom frag and there were like two of them on it.. i also i have a whole bunch of these yellow sponges.. good or bad? check it out please help

-1...not sponges...sea squirts

Sea squirts? That's actually a good name bc if you squeeze them they do squirt.. Are the bad for your tank ?
