I saw this thing on my snail and don't know what it is. Can someone let me know and tell me if I need to get rid if it?
Thank you

Throw the snail out. Do not scrape it off in your tank if it is aiptasia or a majano anemone.
Might be a hydroid

Stiff tooth brush, some display water in a separate container. Just scrub it off really good.
 
I don't think it is a type of nem. So aptasia and majano are out. I do think it is a hydroid but just wanted to make sure.
 
That snail looks like live rock from how much growth he has on him
 
Some dude just told me it is a corkscrew anemone.... idk if I believe that.
 
Looks like the snail is carrying some Gelidium, Red Wiry Turf Algae also. Very hard to get rid of once into your rocks.
