I believe I had three of these hatch from some strange growth on the bottom of a leather colony I bought a month ago. They are in my softy tank. I noticed them just today. I say three, but there could be more. Are they good or bad?

It a appears to be of the Genus: Phyllodesmium. They prey specifically on soft corals. Beautiful, but they are a pest.

Thank you David. I figured it was not a good thing. This one has already been removed. I'll keep an eye out for the rest of them.
