Hello, not a pest id question. More of will this end up a detriment for the coral. I’m pretty sure it had it when I got it several months ago and I thought it was just a regular small feather duster attached to it. Last week I decided to use a plastic rod to crush the worms tube and get rid of it. I noticed today that the tube was still there. When I fed the corals today I noticed a filter feeding top sticking out. So, the tube must be very hard and possibly burrowing into the coral.

Let it go or find a way to kill it? I haven’t noticed it being problematic.
