Pink wee 'lil hitcher.....????

[brikeibur]

Ok, here are two photos of the hitcher. It is a light pink fleshy color. In the day it comes out and is bubble shaped with four 'prongs' sticking out the top. Each prong has little mini-tentacles coming off of it (about 5 or so). At night however, its sucks up and just looks like a little pink lump. It is very small, probably a little smaller than a 1/4 the size of a pencil eraser (can't think of an easier way to describe the size..LOL). I have one comment saying its a star polyp coral perhaps, and someone else thinks its bad and says remove it maybe. Any help would be appreciated. If needed I can try and get more photos, but so far here is what I have:

Thanks for the help guys!!

I'm not sure what it is.
Those polyps dont quite look like star polyps.
Could be the start of some xenia?
I definately would not get rid of it.
I would just watch it develop and see what it becomes

Isn't it amazing the amount of time we can spend watching our LR?
And discover something new seemingly every day!

That was my first thought too. Xenia balls it's little tenticles up at night.
