I have some sort of new creature on my glass. It is small, circular and pink. It constantly pulsates, in a contracting, circular motion. Glanced over the hitchikers guide and did not see anything similar.

This setup is 6 weeks old.Medusa form of a hydroid, probably. How old is your tank?
These are very common in new tanks and will go away on their own soonThis setup is 6 weeks old.

I'ts really hard to tell from those pictures, but is it laying loose on the sand, pulsing with frilly bits/tentacles pointed towards the sky?
Because I almost think it looks like an upside down jellyfish, Cassiopeia sp.
I don’t know about how loose. Thought about poking near it to see if it moved. Started on the glass and has been resting in the sand since. It’s typically stationary. I never spot it moving.
I did take a google search of the upside down jellyfish, and it looks like that’s exactly what it is!! Thanks!
Do they sting corals, people, fish? Seeing that they are typically sand resters on the search.
