Could this be aptaisia ? My tank is about 3 months old and while taking pictures of my tank I just spotted this little thing that could be a tiny aptasia on my hermit crabs shell but I’m not sure what do you think ?

+1 for feather duster
I have only noticed it bigger will it grow big ? Do I need to remove it as I was thinking of a feather duster for stocking in this tank anyway ?

No need! Nice little filter feeder, won't cause any issues! It will not grow to be a huge coco worm type, you are fine

Ah that’s great and they’ve just come out the cave so I can get a better look now and hopefully better pictures
 
Not sure if this is the base of the creature or not can see as when I try go to the side a bit I can’t cause the rock is in the way for me to see

update yes it is so that is where the what we believe to be a fan worm is coming from looks like a worm to me
