Not in a worm like way no....and they receed at night like the polyps of an sps coral. At first I thought maybe galaxia...but I have none. I thought hydroids. But just can't match to any pics.

I mean skeleton like an LPS. I was kinda thinking Galaxea too. I'm not entirely sure what it is.

Scale wise, how big is it? Looks more like an elegance to me than a galaxy. At least in my experience when galaxy's drop polyps they look like little stars, or GSP polyps, albeit with more of an inflated tip.

About the size of a dime. It covers the rock like Sps, in an encrusting way....with polyps.
