Help and ID

What is this stuff. I’ve noticed it on my Zoa post but didn’t think too much of it until I was looking closer at it and saw that it is all over the actual zoa. I tried to clean it off the zoas with a tooth brush but it doesn’t remove easy. I also noticed it’s all over the glass of my tank on the opposite side of the zoas.

Looks like Spirorbid worms - harmless filter feeders, though some people consider them pests in large numbers.

Agreed on the spirorbid worm id. I'd not bat an eyelash at them. They can be pretty as they get a little bigger. Nice fire red crown

Is there a way to remove them off my zoas

These guys feed on algae(s) and can colonize and cover glass, pumps and get into sump. I crape them off as I see them into a net and discard them
