I have some sort of brown tentacle thing coming out of my gsp. I have no clue what it is. Any advice???

Without a picture, my guess would be a mini brittle star?

It’s hard to tell because the picture is blurry but my guess is brown jelly disease. If it is BJD I would remove the coral. Look up BJD and read up on it and suggested remedies. It is very difficult to cure and most just sacrifice the coral (dispose of) to save other coral in the tank. It is highly contagious. Again it is hart to confirm from that picture.

I've never seen or heard of brown jelly on gsp. Only on LPS
