Hello everyone,

I'm new to the hobby and was wondering what these tube like things are growing out of my LR? Thanks for the help!

If I'm looking at the right things, those are pieces of Kenya tree coral.

Is that a good thing it bad?

Those are great for hitchhikers! They are a soft coral, and in the right situations, grow relatively quickly.

Oh great..they're starting to grow all over that rock.. I guess I'll read up on it.. To see what kind of lighting and food (if any)it needs... Thanks for your help!

It doesn't require any type of special feeding, it gets what it needs from the light. And as far as light, it seems to like it right where it is. Med light and low-med flow.
Best of luck with it and enjoy your tank!
