Hello all, I just got this new candy cane coral and it looks to be doing great but I just captured this video and I can’t figure out what the clear white tentacle thing coming out of it is… any idea what it is and what’s going on? Thank you in advance!

Great! Thank you! Is it recommended to direct feed these candy cane corals or will they be fine with the nutrients in the tank?
Totally fine with nutrients in the tank, great eaters though if you wanted to!

They will get enough food by just feeding your fish. Feeding corals directly often cause nutrients to rise and algae to grow. So not necessary to feed them
