They look like oysters or clams of some sort, is your rock aquacultured? I had some FL aquacultured rock and saw tons of these fan worms that would open and close quite rapidly. I wouldnt worry about them, your bound to see a ton of life on your new rock most of which is desired and benificial. HTH

Those look like barnacles to me. Even if they're not, I doubt what we're looking at could possibly be dangerous to your tank in any way.
