What is this? the white bubble looking thing under my zoas. I thought this disappeared but I see it on my tonga branch now.

I want to take the branch out and scrub it off. what is this?

Bubble algae maybe, pics would help.

Edit, they look like barnacles.

Colonial Tunicates. Filter feeding critters. Mostly harmless. May bother you zoas though.

Thanks guys, I get the chills just thinking of them. I just want to get a toothpick and stab/slash them. I'll leave them if they're beneficial though. Zoa's don't seem to mind them.
