So I was examining my tank this evening when I noticed on one of my corals a tube kind of sticking out. From the tip of the tube was two small like tentacles sticking out and I have no idea what it is. I googled some things but I would rather have someone with a good eye who has had these in their tank before, identify it for me and let me know if they’re good or bad. I attached a video and in it you can see how small it is. 06EAD137-41C0-4C1E-A71B-7C1AA626D107.png

Is their any negative affects to having it in the tank.
