Yes their web can irritate corals, they are not pretty to look at and can multiply quickly. I would remove them now while there is only a couple of them.

I was thinking of removing the vermatid snail, especially considering I pretty sure I only have one in my tank. Gotta get him now while the population is low. I really hate the slim web!
I researched the stomatella snail and it seems like they are beneficial, grazing on micro algae and helping to keep things clean. They sure are fast movers!
Anyway thanks for all the input everyone. Looks like I will be doing some exterminating tonight.
