HTH=Hope this helped.
Could be a sponge that is dead/dying. I have had sponges grow like that in between polyps. Its kinda hard without a clearer picture though. Are the polyps opening at all?

might be a bacterial infection. I would swish it arounfd in a container of disposable tank water(water removed from the tank that will be dumped out afterwards). do a coral dip then swish it again in some more disposable water. Then place in a QT.
