Odd hitchhiker

[Sebanyo]

This monstrosity survived a dip of my wall hammer. It seems to be a barnacle like organism because it's living in a shell like thing(stationary) and it almost seems to have two tentacles. I've never heard or seen anything like it. It's not really a problem but it's releasing stringy goo about 6" in length. ID please!

Picture is a bit fuzzy but would guess it to be a Vermetid Snail. Harmless in general but can irritate some stony corals.

Cheers, Todd

Thanks Todd! Hit the nail on the head with that one. Now to get out the dremmel and epoxy.
