Are you referring to the vermatid snails on the hammer's skeleton? I don't actually see anything on the tentacle/fleshy parts.
 
Is the spots on the body. I call the place where I brought the coral. He said is feather duster eggs. It won't harm anything. But still kind of worry. Seems like my coral is getting irritated.
 
I dont see anything came out from it. If it is snail. Should I get rid of it and how. Thank for all who is helping me on this.

Vermetid snails send out “webs” that can irritate other corals. I had a tank that had them everywhere. The next tank I had, I crushed any that I could find.
 
Thanks for the help guys. Look good now. I crush the snail with the wooden chopstick and scrap the side gently with a razor blade. I found the rock that gave me trouble and threw it away.
