Can anyone give me an idea of what these small reddish tubes are that seem to be attached to the stalk/skeleton of one of my frammer heads? They just look like some type of growth, they weren't there when i placed the coral like 2 months ago. Some type of worm perhaps? The structures look hard. Thank you.

So get rid of them I'm guessing. They are only one of the 4 heads so far so hopefully catching it early. I also dipped this coral before putting in the tank so that's a bummer.

Yeah, just scrape them off at the base.

Shouldnt hurt it too much.
