Hard to tell from the picture but from your description, sounds like aptasia. Bad for corals, will sting your corals if the corals grow too close to these. I would remove the rock and replace it. Do not try to remove these by hand, if they break up they will spread to other areas of your tank.
 
They also look like they might be Hydroids. Touch one, a Hydroid will withdraw the tentacles, an Aiptasia will completely close up.
