Can i ask if anyone know what this is and if harmful to the tank. I didn't really notice until just. There seems to some chemical release from this small parasite that lives inside a tube on the rocks? At first thought was Chem warfare from corals but realise it was coming from this dude instead.

google vermetid snail and check if its a match. Not exactly harmful but its filter feeder by throwing “spider web” like stuff to capture food in the water column, this can irritate corals. I use super glue the tube hole so it cant come out feed and starve to death inside, but this method is not 100% as they seem to be able to build another tube. Hope it helps.
