dpotts Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I recently started a 29g biocube and just added my cleaning crew last night. This morning I noticed some things growing on my live rock. One is yellow and looks like a little bud with a small hole at the tip. The other one is a little orange stack with a flat head on it with a smaller one just like it next to it. What the heck are these and do I need to do anything about/with them? Deanna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpotts Posted July 26, 2008 Author Share Posted July 26, 2008 I can't get a good picture of it. They all come out too blurring to see anything! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdavis735 Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 the one with a hole in the center sounds like it could be sponge.they come in several different colors from what i have heard and seen.you dont wanna do anything with it if it is.just let it grow.the other i am not sure.most things that grow on live rock are good to keep.except majano's and aptasia.which are nothing like you described.

chrismunn Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 ide agree with the first description being either a sponge or a tunicate. both of which would be fine to leave in the tank. couldnt even guess on the second one, sorry? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
