I have noticed these becoming more and more abundant in my tank. They first started on the glass and now ive noticed theyre starting to be on my live rock now. They are very small and rigid and can only be removed with a scraper. I thought they might be eggs but theyve now been in the same spots for awhile. Thanks for any and all help.

Can’t really see them. Kinda looks like coralline.

Heres a better picture and i want tonsay theyre the spirobid worms but not terribly sure
Yeah, little spirals. I have these all over. I assume if these filter feeders are proliferating, maybe others like coral will be happy. I take it as a good sign.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
