Hard to tell from the pic. If it's very hard and you can see a tube with an opening, it's a vermetid snail. That's a pest that you don't want in your tank if you can avoid it. I'd just snip off the stem of that plug and throw it away. Alternatively, you can pry it off or chisel it off.
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
