I have a two color yellow/pink Spathulata that has round green eyes in it. I noticed today that one of the "eyes" was opening and closing like a mouth. Could this be a parasite? The rest of the coral has great color and PE. This green hole has no polyps, a green rim with a white mouth that opens and closes.
 
The green spot in question is in the middle of the picture.

hard to tell from pic, it could be a worm. various types of featherduster and other type critters can/do live in the corals.
