Really? what do I do about it? will it kill my coral or cause any harm?

if hes not supposed to be there how do I go about getting rid of him

It's a filter feeder.  The coral is likely fine growing around it.  I wouldn't worry.  They are kind of cool to watch.

I didn't read up a few pages back but I also run a Aquaclear HOB on a 46g Bowfront and I'm thinking of ditching it actually because it leaves way too many bubbles in my tank. I even bought the inTank Basket for it etc.  I run Filter Floss, Purigen and Bioballlllls lol .
