ID please
I bought this porites recently, in the middle I think that is a Christmas tree worms, but there are other---what I think are worms on it There are about 10 on this rock and the sweepers come out of a hole, spin a little, then pull back in, they do this constantly. You can see one on the left about 1/3 of the way up the rock. I'm guessing it is some type of tube worm trying to pull particles out of the water, but they do not stay out like the Christmas tree worm or a feather duster. I searched but couldn't find anything. Any idea?
Thanks

Those other "worms" are actually barnacles.
