cocoon like polyops

fumanchu · 02-19-2005, 11:27 AM

I started my tank 4mths ago, I have about 75 lbs of live rock, fuji and Jakarta. I have been getting an explosion of these little white cocoon looking polyops, with little feather duster fans sticking out of them, to small to photograph, they are onlt about .25 inches but alot of them. is this a worry.

Hi fumanchu, Welcome to Reefland!

These are no worry, a sign of some good diversity. It has been said in literature that an explosion of them may be a sign of lacking husbandry but they are no worry.
