Hello all! Just wondering what these little "interesting" looking projections growing on my live rock are?

Vermetidae snail. They will populate quick. If you have corals. remove it with tweezers or anything you can scrape with.

Hitch Hiking on coral, live rock, live sand. So easy to get them.
They've not super bad. They throw out a mucus net that irritates coral flesh.

Looks like bumblebee snails might have an appetite for them? Any experience with that being successful? I did just tweeze out best as I could about 7 or 8 that I saw on my live rock...

If you look at his pic close, you can see the net.
Personally, I would love them if they didn't put holes in my gloves and cut my hands up.
I enjoyed watching them fish.
