I know it’s a bad pic but it’s a late night shot with the lights off..I catch it with a long tentacle that is feeling around and when light hits it sucks back and disappears!?!?

Digiate hydroid most likely, annoying but not fatal they come And go, I had an infestation that dealt with itself, apparently they sting coral, but my encrusting Briareum showed no reaction to being touched by their “tentacles”. Just a part of reefing, of course I can’t confirm that this is a hydroid but it maybe

Peanut worm perhaps.
They snuffle about like an elephant trunk.
