thanks 4 ur help
 
don't think the link works, or maybe my computer sucks lol. if the picture is from photobucket use the link provided by them. just click on one of your pictures, go to "share", and then click "Get link code", and copy + paste the "IMG code" here.

hope that helps! :good:

Can't say I can see what you are referring to there, but I suspect it is some type of algae. Is it fairly new live rock? It looks quite bleached, i.e. life has not had much time to properly build up on it yet. Usually at this stage is is the macro algae that take prime location and are the most obvious things to spot.

If you are certain it isn't algae, then I would guess maybe some kind of tunicate?
