Fuzzy Stuff

[damedash80]

Good evening everyone,

Can someone please help me identify this fuzzy stuff on my live rock? I bought a couple pieces of coral from someone on Craigslist. The Xenia I bought was attached to the this rock, so he ended up giving me the whole rock, but there's this spongy like material on it. Soft to the touch, almost jelly like.

Thanks Rick. Is there such things as bad sponges?

No, but you may see die off due to there being different amounts of nutrients in the water column of his tank compared to yours.

Definitely makes sense. His tank is 180 gallon, mine is 55.
