Re: What are these critters??
I am pretty sure it is an invertebrate of some sort. Possibly a Hydra or maybe a bryozoan.
The first picture you can see what looks like the outline of the tentacles at the top of the organism. Were the little tan guys a separate critter? Not attached to the colony? Maybe water mites (hydrachnida). I am still checking other possibilities. I'll see what I can find. That is why I love aquatic life. Even in freshwater there are SO MANY different organisms that most people don't even know exist. There are also many yet to be discovered and classified. Saltwater life is like another planet. We may never find every piece of life living in saltwater environments.
