Where there is one there is many. Have any wrasse in the tank that will eat those? May want to invest... My suggestions green coris, lightning wrasse, dusky/greyhead wrasse, pink striated wrasse.

Are they brown. Check for ph swings and ammonia.

Yup. Maybe bugs but the nutrients are quite low.

Not brown, I actually removed my issue. I moved my colony in front of a surface skimmer outflow and spot fed. They opened right up.
