Sponge or tunicate. If you think its smothering the coral you can remove it but generally they are harmless.

How should I remove it .. is it a pest ?? Could it over run my tank ...??

I have the same stuff growing from time to time around my mushrooms. Then it would semi disappear and mushrooms would start growing out of it. I don't think it's anything to worry about, but if you don't like it, and it starts to take over, cut it out
 
I guess it will help with filtering the water then or not ???
 
Ok so this has happened quite recently .. and I think I know why .. for the last 4 weeks I have been feeding my tank phytoplankton from Columbo .. I must admit I've noticed significant improvement in my tank last week or so .. I know this is recent because my frogspawn sits loose on that stone and was always falling off .( snails/ hemitcrabs ) and it hasn't moved in the last 3 weeks for sure .... I've been dosing first two weeks 2.5 ml phytoplankton and second two weeks 5ml .. it's the only thing that I've changed in the last few months .. just thought I'd add this information .. !!

Maybe? But I have a lot of reproducing, and I don't add supplements, just WC with IO.
