Need help IDing eggs/stuff growing or torch

[Bkenny96]

Anyone know what these eggs on my torch are from? Struggling to find anything similar.

Or what the brown/black thing is growing on the base of the torch?

Do you have pictures? Videos have a tendency not to work

Hopefully these work!

Did the pictures come through?

Yes, they did - the little white "eggs" are actually spirorbid worms; harmless filter-feeders.

The black and white stuff growing are colonial tunicates; they're technically harmless filter-feeders, but some invasive kinds can grow over and smother corals - so I'd suggest scraping them off the coral and putting them on an isolated rock in the tank where you can easily control their spread.

The brownish-white encrusting thing next to the black and white tunicates may also be tunicates (I can't see it super clearly, but the holes look very well organized, so I would assume they're tunicates rather than a sponge - I'd suggest putting them on a separate island rock too.

The red things on the torch are hard to see, but they're probably benthic foraminiferans like Miniacina miniacea or a branching variety of Homotrema rubrum - those ones are harmless filter-feeders and can be left on the torch without concern.
