Can anyone identify if these are hitchhikers on my frogspaw ? They look like black spots. This was dipped when I purchased it with CoralRx. It opened up beautifully for weeks now for the past 2 weeks it has not opened fully. Just a few days ago I dipped it a second time and these spots are still there and do not come off easily.

is it on the bone or flesh? could they be tube snails? if its tube snails youll see a calcium pipe that is protruding from a base that is in a shape of a ball . they are red/purple in color and only irritate the euphylias delicate flesh when the tubes grow too large

p.s. the black splotch between the two highlighted circles looks like bruised flesh, or somesort of necrosis. i really have no idea about that one.
