    Attack on the Finger Leather

    The guy at the lfs says that I would see a white spot if there was a disease? He claims leathers shed themselves like this from time to time? Now, I don't buy this-at least not with my leather--but have you heard of leathers shedding fingers like this before. I can't find the fingers anywhere...

    Recently, I've discovered these small egg looking objects in my sump and overflow box. So far, I've counted 3. They have little hair-looking things coming out of the pointy end. Any idea what this could be? Could this be some kind of 'pod' ? :?:

    Thanks so much for your detailed reply, Steve. I was going to add the 5 peppermint shrimp because I heard they like to be in groups. Do you think I should only add 1 or 2? Also, I have these very tiny feather duster looking things on my LR--about 6 of them. I am a little concerned that they...
