Taken near Grand Bahama. I've never seen this before.
What is growing on this coral?

So they're some sort of tunicates. I appreciate all the responses from everyone I had somehow never run into them before.

You can tune a guitar, you can tune a radio, but you can't tune a kit.
Nice pix, btw.

I'm not an expert on the tunicates of that region (or even my home waters) but it looks more like the painted tunicate (Clavelina picta) than the bluebell tunicate (Clavelina moluccensis). There are other species that may look similar.
