 Something ALIEN??!!...... I just found the most wierd thing in my tank! I have NO CLUE what it is, my best GUESS is that it's a piece of my carpet anemone I gave away to William1, kind of reminds me of the bulb like tentacles and it flouresces BRIGHT GREEN in a couple spots!! I can't tell if it's moving on it's own or swaying in the current but, wow this is wierd! Anyone have an idea what this is?..... (please say a ricordia!  )  Btw, thought they were clownfish eggs but, not enough of them, right? I do have one female false perc and two males. I am SOOOOOOOO tempted to suck it out and throw it under the microscope but, don't want to kill it, IF it's a good thing!

| Re: Something ALIEN??!!...... I got a couple of these on a frag I got and was scared to death, but with a pair of tweezers and patience you can get them off.. DONT bust them in your tank if you can pull the rock and do it out of DT it will make life easier.

| Re: Something ALIEN??!!...... Well, I already know about the bubble algae and there is a new emerald crab in the tank..... the part I'm referring to is the whitish greenish glowing part in between the bubbles.... maybe the green is hard to see. Anyone see what I'm asking about, it's pretty small....

| Re: Something ALIEN??!!...... Thanks guys. I know, have been hand harvesting them for months and finally broke down and have an emerald crab in there now. So I've got him eating them and I'm still hand harvesting them too. Anyways, I am just fascinated by whatever this is... it has two extremely bright green flourescent spots and looks like it's a cluster of something.... anyways, thought someone might have seen this before or know what it is, I'd love to know! Will definitly keep an eye on it and take more pics as it grows/changes.... this could be interesting!

| Re: Something ALIEN??!!...... Ok, figured it out! I'm not sure if this is a good or bad thing but it's a piece of my frogspawn! My clowns are starting to host it a little more often and I'm guessing they are knocking of some of the pieces of it?.... Or is this how frogspawn reproduces? Not sure. I know it's a piece of my frogspawn though. Thanks for looking!

| Re: Something ALIEN??!!...... I would watch out. The clowns can be too hard on it and cause it to lose pieces. I had a problem with my GSM and my Torch. It loved the Torch, which was a little smaller than he was and he did a number on it. It almost died. |
