Some form of worm or feather duster?

[Keithb22]

So I can’t get a really good picture of it but I did try. It kind of looks like a feather duster or I guess maybe a Christmas tree worm? But it looks white with blue stripes and any time I go near it whatever it is sucks back into the rock. Any one have a clue what it could be?
Thanks for the help either way, always appreciated.

Can you circle the exact spot that your talking about.

I thought it posted but here is a better picture and it’s right above the white point/star shaped thing.

I can't make it out but maybe #reefsquad can help.

It’s incredibly hard to get a picture of but it is very distinct in the white and blue. When I went to poke it, it reacted like a feather duster would. I’m sure that narrows it down to nill

I can’t see anything

Draw an arrow on the pic lol

 

[Keithb22]

Is this any better? Sorry everyone this is probably annoying

 

[Keithb22]

Let me see what I can do lol

I was able to edit it through my phone but couldn’t draw an arrow.

OK, so I blew it up about 200% & I can see where your talking about the blue & white but it's still not enough to make out. It could be a FD or some kind of worm. Maybe some others will take a look as they get time & figure it out.

OK, lol so which picture has the right spot

This one lol I swear they look way more clear on my phone. But hopefully that other one isn't hydroid bc that would suck lol

That's about as big as I could go, it starts getting to blurry any bigger. Try to get a better pic of the other one that @Hemmdog was looking at to dble check.

Possibly aiptasia, I'm not an expert but from what I have seen it looks like it could be?

That was one of my thoughts also but any I've had didn't have that white/blue or black striping.

A quick Google of 'blue aiptasia' will be enough to convince you otherwise unfortunately
