It's a Spirorbid Worm. They are fine.

They are like little feather dusters in coiled calcareous tubes. You can see their little feathers in macro shots.

I had a lot in the back of one of my tanks. I just scraped them off and sucked them out with a water change.

Thx lion fish just started seeing them everywhere and was hopping they weren't a pest. That second picture is crazy if that was your tank that would drive me crazy looking at that.

 

[Lionfish Lair]

It was in a training tank, so I let all sorts of things grow in there for photos.

Oh actually, I'm lying. That was on a pump in the overflow of an AIO.

So I have one more thing idk what it is I could get a picture so I took a video it's on the bottom of my torch. It's about a 1/4 in white/clear stright tube with a feather at the top.

But I can't get the video to upload so I tryed to get a good picture

I could move the torch to get a better picture but I am going to try not to bother it.

 

[Lionfish Lair]

Is it a pineapple sponge?

 

[Reef man 89]

Idk it's hard on the out side. I will try to get a better picture

 

[Lionfish Lair]

It could just be a feather duster.

Scanning through some of these photos may help too...
