Its a tube worm emitting its fan to capture food and often ends up on snails
 
Its a tube worm
There are three on this one and probably one or two on the other snail, should i remove them or they can stay?


but could be a hydroid
Can hydroid be red? This things are clearly red, inside a white-ish tube.
If they are hydroids i should scrub them off outside the tank?

Either wat- scrub off. Then you prevent future expansion or colony
