I cant ID this thing for the love of god. It looks like a red feather duster or aiptasia. I hope its NOT aiptasia. Maybe you guys can ID this. Thanks a bunch.

I have some of those. Some type of feather duster. They are white looking tubes with red feather heads. Pretty common.

Probably a polychaete worm in the genus spirobis. But that's a tough picture to be certain on its ID.
