What’s this?

Hi community

Earlier today I posted a thread about not knowing what corals I purchased. I got some quick responses (thanks to all that gave input.) I have a leather but on the side of it are some sprouts. I don’t know what these are, could you all help me again please.

Looks like gsp. Invasive and will take over the rock work

How to not let that happen, without damaging it? Although, I’m not sure if the back glass will be good place for it to take over.

You can’t stop it from growing. Easiest way is to chisel/scrap the gsp off the rock

Is that what that is? I thought that was part of the gsp but it’s one on a rock on the other side of the tank...
Are they good or bad?

Manjano are pest anemones. GSP can be peeled off like a mat. I liked having some in the tank, just isolate it to it's own area. If you get it off in one piece you can glue it somewhere else.
