this is a type of white sponge. I cannot remember the name for the life of me. They are filter feeders, but can get to the point of annoying corals and possibly covering zoas up. Granted, this is only if they have enough silica and other nutrients to fuel their growth.

With that said, all my tanks have some here and there and if they get close to something, I just pluck the overgrowth off.
