xien2000corp Posted August 12, 2004 Author Share Posted August 12, 2004 anyone? -steve Link to comment
schaferfred Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 Those same things just started appearing on my powerheads. Are they kinda fuzzy looking? I was assuming that they were some kind of sponge. Link to comment
xien2000corp Posted August 12, 2004 Author Share Posted August 12, 2004 hmm....no mine arent fuzzy. i took a poke at one and it is a hard shell. im concerned because the friend who had these said they would get on his fish if they rubbed up against them and they would become very ill. -steve Link to comment
tinyreef Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 try prying one off and looking underneath. could be a sponge or crustacean or a mollusk of some type. it could also be some kind of 'pod (i.e. copepod, amphipod, etc.). Link to comment
DarkXerox Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Ya know, I have seen these before in an SPS tank. I'll go ask the owner tomorrow to see what they are. Link to comment
DarkXerox Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 well he said they were just some calcifications and shouldnt be a problem. Link to comment
