Strange green creature

Hi--We just got some new live rock for our 75g tank and this green creature has appeared. Almost looks like a shrimp, but swims like a fish and is very quick. It looks like it has white points on it's tail and no legs that I can see. Flourescent green in color. It's really very ugly and I'm concerned about our large coral population. Haven't been able to find anyone who can tell me what it is. Please help
