Hello everyone.

My sister has a tank with a pair of clownfish and they just had babies, so we’re very excited. But we’ve also noticed these little white spore tree things. We’ve tried googling every possible descriptive word. But we’re still none the wiser on what these are. Could someone please help educate us. Many thanks!

Possibly colonial hydroids?
Hi Reefing102. Thanks for your reply. It’s got my sister stumped as nothing new has been introduced to the tank. I shall pass on your thoughts and find the best way to get rid of them.

Tricky angle. . . Not aptasia but either hydroids or star polyps
