donteatthenano Posted September 23, 2003 Share Posted September 23, 2003 My tank is about 2 months old and I just noticed this creeping around the side of one of my pieces of LR. Is it old enough to ID and if so, what is it? Thanks a lot. Link to comment

donteatthenano Posted September 25, 2003 Author Share Posted September 25, 2003 i saw the same pink/orange cups at the lfs and they couldn't ID them either. apparently they are common though. thanks for any help anyone might be able to offer. got a gsp frag yesterday to add to the chaos.

kennerd Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 Your "pink cups" are tunicates. Need a little better description of the coral in the first two pics. Looks like pocilipora from the polyp structure, but may be a type of sponge. Link to comment
donteatthenano Posted September 30, 2003 Author Share Posted September 30, 2003 thanks a lot for your input. i thought they might be tunicates. i will try to put together a good description and an update photo to post tonight after doing some sponge and pocilipora research. thanks again kennerd Link to comment
