Default white things....

My best guess without seeing it, is that it is of the Leucosolenia
species, it is very common on the rock from these two areas.

I have Fiji and Tonga. This particular rock (they are all on one) was a
Tonga rock I believe, that is if that particular LFS was telling the truth.

Is there any good sites that have databases of different mushrooms, sponges
etc. that I could browse through? I have done searches and looked through RC
but haven't found anything that looks like these. They are still too small
to get a good shot of (about half the diameter of a pencil eraser).

What kind of live rock do you have and where did it come from, this will
help in identifying where the little guys come from.

I moved around some rock yesterday and found two different white things.

1) They look like fuzzy little volcanoes, really small cones with a hole


in

the center. There was one that was bigger it appears they grow wider


around

the base as they get larger, they have the look of cotton.

2) Appears to be white Coralline but I have never seen that before, does


it

exist? There are specks on the glass in the back of the tank that feel


like

coralline and don't come off too easily. I also found the same white


stuff

growing on one of the rocks back there.

Since adding my power compacts I have noticed a LOT more growth over the
last two weeks on the rock and some of the stuff I just can't find on


the

net.
