Anybody know what this is? It's white and looks like a dead tree. It's always out and doesn't retract.

Looks like a Foraminiferan.

If it's building sand into its structure, it could also be a Lanice worm.

It looks very similar to that. The base looks a little different but otherwise the same. I think the Favia will grow over it anyway. Seems to be already.
