Default red and white ball???

I set up my first tank 10 days ago using uncured live rock - it is still cycling but I have noticed a half inch long rugby ball shaped lump hanging under one of the rocks - it was all covered in a browny grey 'slime' . Then I noticed that part of the slimy covering had gone and underneath is a dark pink/red colour with white (could be white rings but not enough uncovered to tell) - also has a small hole in the uncovered section with a very fine appendage coming out - it looks like it could be reaching around but this may just be a small section of the covering still attached and moving with the current - any ideas anybody???????
