Ive had the coral a while and they seemed happy but today they had these floresent chunks on the ground near them. They seemed happy for a long time but today I woke up to see this little patch of orange glowing stuff by the base of the three. What is this stuffs and am I going to lose a coral?

Could it just be florecent fish poop? Or something picking on my corals.
(Sorry the pick sucks its just the three corals but behind them is a patch of small orange florecent chunks (best discription i got) that just apeared over night.

Yea I'll add another with white, but these showed up over night and there was a patch of about a dozen little orange specs all resting on the bottom of the tank in the one little space behind the coral. My issue being I dont have any orange coral and I feed a greenish red flake food. (and reef roids once a month ish) I'm mildly worried.

The pencil urchins in the way of the pile but the coral on the left has one right at the bottom

If you take a pic with an orange filter we would better able to see it under all blues

This? Because if so I want to know too because they've popped up up in my system. Fwiw I assumed it was some stage of coralline growth.. :thinking-face: if it's this of course lol

Noted with the orange filter thing.

The cyanocobalamin in my tank is perple.

And it would blow around like waste or dibri until the penile urchin made some dissappear and the rest is gone away mysteriously.
Personally I'm caught between corral/nem waste, or particles of fuzz from my orange work jacket
