Those look like feather dusters or something problly ok, but a clearer pic would help.

How old is tank, how big, corals near clam?
 
have they grown into the shell???

do they have an ugly face at one end??


the pictures are quite bad but they look to be a vermited snail, generally harmless but they do spew out mucus to catch there dinner.

here's a pic of one i got on a gigas. you can see his ugly face sticking out and just make out the spiral shell below attached to the gigas's shell.

Tank is 3 months old, there are no corals near the clam at all. Unfortunately clearer pics are hard as it's small clam and that's a point and shoot with it's macro setting heh...
