Hey all, after dipping and acclimating this little torch, I have found a hole into the skeleton between the 2 polyps. There is a white, almost clam looking mouth that opens around the entrance of the hole, and a circle of white hairs protruding from it. Hairs will pull back in momentarily when the torch tentacles touch it too much. Any idea what this critter could be?!

Ah you're right! Harmless filter feeder I'm guessing? Or should I be worried about it hurting my torch skeleton?
