Anyone know what this could be?
Today while feeding my tank, I noticed this thing attached to my Tree Leather. It looks like a piece of fabric or string wrapped around one of the branches of my Tree Coral, but its not. maybe some kind of algae? seems to be pinching of the branch to my Tree Leather.
My photography is not the best, but in these pictures the red/maroon thing attached to the Tree Leather in the center of the picture is the thing in question. Thanks

Looks like a piece of slime algae that got caught while adrift. I would blow it off and not worry about it.

From the picture it appears to be a stand of cyano but when touched, that would literally fall apart? |

I agree with Darrin and Scott, it appears to be a strand of cyanobacteria that got dislodged and landed on your Sinularia
 Nothing to worry about,I would just blow it away with the baster as advised by Darrin.

And as if you were convinced by the other replies I concur that it is algae and blow that sucker off with a turkey baster!!!
