nice sponge. Or maybe a cool tunicate. If it doesn't move, let's see if it will grow.

It almost looks like a bunch of sand that's stuck to the slime a worm or snail creates.

Fan worm.

gamerunr · 05/05/2018, 06:56 PM

What are these and how do I get rid of them? They are multiplying at a rapid rate.
Thanks

Ron Reefman · 05/10/2018, 05:16 AM

timster, I think that's a good assumption.

robmurray77 · 05/13/2018, 03:39 PM

Is it holding it or is it attached to it? It looks like a snail operculum.

robmurray77 · 05/16/2018, 10:06 AM

It was holding it. And I did find a empty snail shell so makes sence. Thanks for the help

Trying to find and ID for these weird egg looking things on the bottom of some frag plugs. Some are clear some are not. Almost jelly looking.

Hi all, brand new to the hobby and have a question about what is growing on my liverock while my tank is cycling. If anyone could help me ID this, it would be much appreciated! Thanks!
