I do not know if this is a pest or not so if anyone has an idea to what this might be please help. Here is the description: from what I see it looks like it as it could be a feather duster living in a month SPs coral. This thing has been throwing out slime like thing and the slime has been closing some of my zoas. When I feed it it catch mysis and brine shrimp and looks as if it was realin it in, actually does pull it in slowly. Sorry no pic but it loos like a hole in the coral and a spider web coming from it. If no reply I will cut the coral into Fra and get ride of it. Please help if u have any ideas of what this is. Thanks in advace.

There are several snails and worms that feed that way, most of them will not hurt any other animals in your tank, even if the zoo's are closing it is probably because of the contact, not that they are being hurt. Look up worm snails in the family Turritellidae and spagetti or medusa worms in the family Terebellidae. With out a photo you will just have to go through different sp and see what it could be.

Sounds like vermetid snails. I have these and at times looks like it irritates some of my zoas with its mucos webbing.
