What makes these little sand borrows/tubes ?    You can see there are 2 of them in the sand at the base of the rock.

Some sort of worm in the sand. I just saw something similar on r2r and they said they are harmless and actually help clean up left over food and what not. This is regurgitated info though.

Kinda looks like the top of a vermetid worm tube. But I'm no expert

why is my text so tiny... Haha

I don't believe they are vermetid worm tubes unless this is what they look like when they build them.  These are the consistency of sand held together with spit.  I saw one before when I was clearing some algae with a toothbrush and it disintegrated as soon as I touched it.  Curious what makes them.
