 White and on my Frogspawn? Hello all, I am new to this, and have had my tank for about 9 months. Anyway... I have a Frogspawn that has something white growing on it. At first, I thought it was part of the Frogspawn, but now.... I have no idea. Kind of Spungy looking? Any Help would be appreciated.  |

| Re: White and on my Frogspawn? maybe its just a sea squirt growing on the side of it....does it have anything that look blowholes on it...holes that hold their shape all the time as if it is breathing? i have a few of those in my tank that appeared on my star polyp rock etc etc. steve |

| Re: White and on my Frogspawn? Blowholes..... Yes, I would say. It has little volcano looking holes all over it. If it is a sea squirt, what is that? Bad? My concern is the health of the Frogspawn. |

| Re: White and on my Frogspawn? TUNICATES Tunicates (or sea squirts) are another filter-feeding hitchhiker. These vase-shaped critters can be clear, purple, orange, or a variety of other colors. Xtalreef |

| Re: White and on my Frogspawn? I had a pineapple sponge that got quite large one time, looked similar. |

| Re: White and on my Frogspawn? Well after looking at the pictures of the Hitchhikers.... It really looks a lot like the sponge. But I thought Sponges were usually color. Not Clear/white? |

| Re: White and on my Frogspawn? Ok, been reading on sponges, and it says that they will come and go. This has been growing for months, but is now starting to get big. I also attached another photo. I don't know if it is any better then the last. Im trying to take good picture, but Im finding it very difficult. Any advise on taking a good pic, might be good also.  |
