This little thing showed up in my tank and dont know if its a pest or a danger to the reef or if I should just leave it alone. Any comments about it or ID would be greatly appreciated.

Video attached.

I agree it looks like a Stomatella…But…. The pics do an illusion for me. I can see it maybe on the glass but I also see it coming out of a tube…Like a some type of tube worm. If it’s moving around my vote would be a type of Stomatella..

100% stomatella. I looked up the name online and it has the same distinct look as the one in my tank. I love that little thing and Im glad its safe!

I still wish someone sold these. I've had my latest tank up for over two years and haven't been lucky to bring any in yet.
Its sad that they dont seem to sell them...

They seem great for even nano tanks, they can get into tiny crevices, and they are reef safe.

I dont get it
