Dear all
my first post, not sure if I should have presented myself to the community somewhere.
I have started from less than two months a nano (30 Liters = ~8Gallon) for soft corals, and a large one in the last 4weeks (250L = 66Gallons), which is currently cycling so no animals.
I have found on my Cespitularia a small animal, which was "grazing" on it but with no obvious damage or stress to the soft coral.
It is about 1cm (0.3inches) and I have a picture showing the upper part and a picture showing the lower part.

any idea if this animal is harmful? It doesn't look like as all corals are opening normally (with the exception of one Zoanthus which is not yet opening totally).
thank you for any help
