Please ignore the fact that the coral is chilling on a frag plug in the sand, it seems to like it there and I have commitment issues lol.

I saw this little guy on my clove polyps. The "feathery" end seems to retract when I mess with it. However, I do have some hydroids in my tank so I'm not completely sure if its that or some kind of tube worm.

Thank you!

Oops- just looked on my large screen rather than phone and its a tube worm which emits a fan to capture food.
