Thanks, they seemed harmless but it was just driving me crazy that I didn’t know what they were lol. I like them more now that I know they are pineapple sponges haha.@RedFrog211 meant their population will fluctuate - I weirdly love these little guys had tons in my sump
What’s the silicate with DI thing about then, never heard of that before. They are charged with hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide generally. You got a link, cheers.Myth on filter feeder. They are derived from silicates (likely from Di resin) and grows in shaded or dark areas and are theerby shortlived as silicates dissipate.
Too many can be a nuisance and easily removed with edge of a credit card
They're dependent on silica levels in the tank. They should be self limiting, but if you're introducing silicates into the tank (usually done by not using RO/DI water and sand), you will have a population.What’s the silicate with DI thing about then, never heard of that before.

Well, I totally misunderstood what you said. RODI rulesThey're dependent on silica levels in the tank. They should be self limiting, but if you're introducing silicates into the tank (usually done by not using RO/DI water and sand), you will have a population.
I started my tank with treated tap and live sand. I have since been doing weekly water changes with RO/DI. That would explain it.They're dependent on silica levels in the tank.
