Over the past few days this spiderweb looking deal has been forming in this spot. What is it and if it's created by an animal what makes it?

Looks like a cirratulid worm. They are useful for cleanup, and I think they're interesting.

I agree with Bertoni. Cirratulid worm. I believe they are also called spagetti worms.

thanks. Although I like diversity and neat little critters like this one in my tank I hope it doesn't get too much bigger.

I haven't seen them much bigger than the one in the picture. You will probably start seeing more of them though.
