White dots on Torch Coral?

[Jason Brown]

Hi all,

I've searched and searched everywhere, but yet to come up with anything on what this might be. There are definitely more than when I got the piece 6 weeks ago. This photo was taken at night when the torch is closed up, but I'm also aware of the apparent tissue recession. I suspect this is because it was splitting from 1 to 3 heads, although it was a rough first few weeks in my tank. It has appeared to be very happy and healthy in the past several weeks, swaying back and forth during the day.

any help is appreciated!

Look like soirorbid worms on the skeletal base. No worries. Filter feeders.

+2 I have these everywhere in my tank. Your torch is fine with these attached at the base.
