Hello everyone,

First of all Happy New Year to everyone!
I do have a question. I noticed todays some small white polyps on one of the rocks (many) and few on other rocks (maybe 10) in my tank. I was trying to take pictures but they are not the best quality. Polyps are white color and have around 4mm height. I can see they have leg and some tentacles. There is probably around hundred of them. I do see them mostly on one rock.
Tank is 6 months old (3 weeks ago I moved everything from my 20G to new 40G AIO. I used dry rock and recently i only added few snails from LFS and tang from Petco.
I am attaching picture showing polyps and my whole tank.

Let me hear your opinions. I am really confused here. These rocks have been in tank since the beginning. I bought them dry. This is the first time they pop out.
