So, I've been showing these to everyone in the hobby I know and no has an answer, so I turn to you! The R2R forum gods. Please, tell me what these things are.
A little background, they are ONLY growing on my snails and have been for the past 4 or so months. The only things that have BEEN in the tank is crabs, snails, a mini carpet and some zoas. They don't seem to be harming anything but I am finally at a point where I can add fish to my tank (long story regarding a consistently delayed house fumigation) but I would like to identify what this is before adding little fishy friends. All my water parameters are within normal and acceptable limits and for lighting I'm running a Kessil on my 29g cube.
The organism in question looks like a mushroom, literally a fungi not coral, with a very faint little fibers plume on the top that you can kind of make out in the second photo and are about 1-2 inches. There is a secondary shelf just under the primary cap that you can also see in the second photo.
Cheers and Thanks!
