Seen this on a side of my frag any ideas? Pretty sure it's not good cause it causes the sps to slime. Should I cut it off the frag, toss it or salvage the top?

The first thing that popped into my mind was that it looked a bit like a vermetid snail tube. It's sort of difficult to tell though. Is there anything inside it? Perhaps it's a sponge.

Something is definitely in there it comes out and looks like a snail.

It's a vermetid snail, they are harmless but corals can find them annoying. A bit of epoxy sealing up the tube should do the trick

Seal it in there and the coral will eventually enrust it.

thanks I'll seal that thing up
