Hiya Guys
I'm new to saltwater fish keeping but have kept tropical fish for 5 years.
I set up my saltwater tank a couple of weeks ago and 5 days ago I bought some live rock to start cycling the tank. When I purchased the rock it already had some pinky purpley colouring to it and some dark pink hard tubey bits which I haven't been able to identify yet. Last night i was looking at the rock and noticed a very tiny feather duster which decided to play peek a boo with me lol. i went to check the tank which i usually do before lights out and tonight found about 10 off them all on my rocks. Is it normal to find them so soon and will they survive being in the tank so soon? I've found loads of white tubes within my rocks, so i'm guessing there are hundreds!
Thank you for any replies.
