Tube ID

[Greckel]

Hey everyone,

I noticed these tube-like critters growing on my lobo tonight (sorry about the streaky glass). They appear to retract when I shine a light on them. They are pliable and a translucent brown color. I am worried they might irritate or harm the lobo, and I am wondering if I should dip the lobo again or remove them.

Can’t tell from picture. Sorry.

They may be a form of tunicate, or "sea-squirt".

@KJ may be able to narrow it down - or even tell you they're something completely different!

Yup to Tunicates. ^
