On one piece of lr i have a couple little "tubes." Every time i feed they send out a thin strand of what ill call mucus that i assumed they use to catch food. I jut now confirmed that they are something caues i saw some cyclopeeze get caught on one and then watched itg be reeled in.

Vermetid Snails. harmless filter feeders. they will get all over the rocks, and sometimes the mucus strand they release or the tube itself will bother a coral. if that happens just remove the snail.
