Help! What are hydroids?
I so I have these things the closeup was a pic I found on google but looks identical to these things on my heater and glass

 

[apet66]

I don't think that's what you have. I have the same thing and mine doesn't have legs like a starfish.

 

[kwandrsn]

mine kinda do. Real thin hairlike legs they look identical to the closeup pic when you look closely

Almost like snowflakes

Do some research. I have no idea.

I started a new thread "what are these and are they bad"

 

[kwandrsn]

Ok I have figured out I have hundreds of hydroids

Done some scrubbing. I ordered a 22" long scrubber for $4.99 I like it a lot better than using my hand. Also got a bio cube cleaning magnet for curved glass, works great and you can also go around edges to get to the other side. A+. Bought a magnetic cleaner at Walmart and my glass is too thick and it falls off easily very crappy imo might be ok on my wifes tank cause the glass is thinner so I'm putting it on it instead.

Heres a idea. Magnetic cleaner with a long handle.I can't reach between one side and the wall and the back and the wall

Also getting salt buildup where my intake tube for my hob is pieced together.thinking of running a bead of Superglue gel to seal it off better it doesn't look like its leaking water but it has moist salt buildup on it and its not from water surface
