Recently got into this hobby and love it have a Fluval evo 13.5 finished cycling a couple weeks ago gave 2 clowns, hermits, snails and one coral shrimp. Found this in my tank not sure wat it is. Pulled out another bigger one last week. It’s brown and kinda looked like a sack, when I pulled it out of the water it had tiny bumps on it kind of like the surface of a basketball .

Thanks, yes I took the other one off yesterday and didn’t get a picture but it was spongy. I’ll keep an eye on it and will post again if it gets bigger.
