Does anyone know what this curious thing might be? I saw it amongst the branches of some coral in the southern Caribbean off the coast of Bequia in the Grenadines. As you can see it's tiny, and was in about 20m of water.

Hard to say. Similar things I've seen in the past were cnidarians (like an anemone or solitary hydroid head), sponges, foraminiferans or other types of large protozoan, tentacle masses, etc. It looks very delicate which means that only a diver would see it in good shape. If it were brought up for examination it would probably deteriorate very rapidly.
