Hi Ben, it look most likely to be some kind of sponge. Think it should be quite harmless as long as it is not overgrow to your other corals

That, I'm not too sure myself

.... but imo that they should be consider as an invertebrates as they dun have a skeleton like lps and sps.
And will it spread quickly, depends on the sponge itself. Cos not sure what sponge species is that. If the conditions for it is right, it might spread.
