Is it a worm?

HTML Code:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/143hb_vY8IsWwWjgrUNZZPW2BebdwAO3s/view
Last week I got a new coral. I think it's a montipora but I'm not sure. Today I noticed some sort of feathery finger type thing that keeps popping in and out and wondering if it's a worm or something else. I'd like to know if I should try to get rid of it being it's too late.

Sounds kind of like a Barnacle. You might want to compare what you have to some pictures online and see if you have a match.

The video is extremely blurry. Do you have any better pics/vids of the suspect?

Look for pictures of feather dusters and barnacles.

I'm at work and our firewall blocks google drive so I can't see your video, but I'd start there.

Looks like a barnacle, harmless.
