Just got these frags and one of the favia has this fuzz on it. Does anyone know what it could be?

It looks like slime to me. Some corals secrete it when they're stressed. If that's the case, it should go away.

If that's the case i'm relieved. My zoas are coming out now so fingers crossed. Thanks for the info!
