What is this in my finger leather coral?

[Scatcat]

Ok I noticed my finger leather is looking bad not opening up and not good. I got to looking today and this is what I find. What is that? It looks like a feather duster tube and is attached I tried to suck it off with a turkey baster but it's stuck. I had a feather duster die I'm now wondering if it just relocated in my coral.

Here is the best picture I could get. It's not moving whatever it is. What should I do? I know the pict is bad it's the best I can do with provided equipment.

I can't see anything in the pic either, but from your description look up Vermatid Snail

There is nothing coming out from what I can tell. I don't know about the snail it doesn't look like it but I can't tell.

A Vermatid Snail will cast mucous threads into the water column to collect food. If it's dead you just see an empty tube.

It's strange it's pretty big, and wasn't there before my water change a couple of days ago. I would have seen it when I blow the junk off my corals. No mucus either.
