Can someone ID this for me

[joeb558]

I have a few of these growing around/out of my acan. Friend or foe?

Little tube worms. Spirorbid maybe? I would say friend.

+1 friend,unless they get crazy out of control,then you could always get a fish that would cut down the population,as in longnose hawkfish,copperband,wrasses etc

+1 Looks like a spirorbid to me also. Harmless filter feeders that will help clean your water. These grow in tubes similar to the vermitid snails. The vermitids are also generally harmless but can irritate corals with their debris collecting webs. If you have any vermitids near corals, try to remove them as they can bother corals. Spirorbids won't bother anything.

Here's a good link to ID hitchhikers.
