ACIDRAIN Moderator Posts: 3162 Kudos: 1381 Votes: 416 Registered: 14-Jan-2002	Not real sure. Tell up more about it. Does it grow larger in the light? And shrink down at night? Is it soft or hard? Did it just appear on your LR? Or is it something you bought? It kinda looks like a bubble coral to me. _____________________________________________________________ There is always a bigger fish...

As far as I know, it stays the same size all the time, but it is growing like wildfire. And it's soft, almost jelly like. At first I thought it was some sort of algae, but then uhm, it started to look really bizarre. So yeah I have no idea. :-/ -Formerly known as the Ferretfish

If it's growing fast, I'd try to vac it out, or move the rock to the fuge for a bit, It'd be a nice addition to a fuge as long as it's all safe and good.

And did you figure out if the base is calcareous or not? Maybe we can narrow down the types of critter it/they could be.
