Just noticed this tonight, 1 so far. See video, it retracts when bothered but then comes right back out again. Feather duster or Aiptasia? IMG_5735.jpeg

Do you have videos or photos under white lights? Hard to tell with the blues
 
Doesn't look like aiptasia, leaning more towards feather duster
 
It's hard to tell in the pictures, but the video looks like a feather duster to me.
 
This is as white light as it will get. Thx.

thank you everyone, I was able to actually see the tube it comes out of today so feather duster it is! Been at this for a little bit now and every little thing makes me panic still, but I’m getting there! Thank you for everyone’s input!
