It pops straight up out of the live rock and stays that way until something comes near it. It looks hard (calcerous) and NEVER leaves that position. It is either up 1/2" or flat against the surface of the live rock.
My best guess is it is a Mollusca Phylum -- one that is hard skinned but has no shell with a worm like body. I thought maybe Annelida in the Polychaeta class but nothing seems to come close in appearance.
Any body have ANY knowledge on what this "jack-in-the-box" thing is?! NO ONE has a clue -- no one at ANY LFS can even guess. C'mon, I wanna be impressed.
View 1: Side view up (about the size of a nickel)
View 2: Side view down (completely invisible even down to the calcerous algae)
View 3: Front view up (or at least coming back up)
