I have noticed this tiny white things on my glass. They are extremly small, white, and look like they have 3 legs, or out croppings. They are so small, can't photograph them.

They are some type of pods that are usually in new tanks. They should end up as fish food.

saywill · 09-09-2007, 03:33 PM

but this tank has been going for about 2 years, still pods? are they ok to stay?

**melosu58** · 09-09-2007, 10:56 PM

Have you added any new LR lately?

saywill · 09-10-2007, 09:02 AM

I added a new rock 2-4 months ago. Maybe they came from that. Are they harmful?

**roka64** · 09-10-2007, 11:53 AM

They could be pods or harmless filter feeders, just a guess since they are too small to photograph.

That`s where they came from then. They are not harmless amd will disapear over time

Yes I messed up on that. They are harmless and will not harm anything. Thanks for the correction. Too early in the morning. LOL
