Hello, just recently moved my entire tank to a max e 170. It seemed as if my rock flower anemone was spawning with what looked like a white fog in the center of it and a few days later noticed alot of stuff growing on the glass of the tank.

Hopefully not bryopsis. Never heard of jelly hydroids before. Not sure if cleaning the glass will spread whatever it is

My first thought was hydroids but not the typical ones we see. I’ve been blessed with bryopsis, they were never on glass, just my experience. I would go with a Trolee and google a picture of them and compare.
