SRC Member R0B Posted April 7, 2021 SRC Member Share Posted April 7, 2021 This could be a 'white sponge'. (As I cant see any 'spiderwebs' on your photos but rather a blanket of grey white), hopefully other reefers can confirm this.Most sponges are harmless, but need to be kept in check. To treat use hydrogen peroxide or hot water. I don't recommend you try and remove manually by brushing or scraping as it will spread. Problem with sponges is if you treat they can rot in the tank so suck out the water and flesh around the area you are treating. Also be prepared and have plenty of salt water available to replace displaced water and for subsequent water changes.

reed_ridhwan Posted April 7, 2021 Author Share Posted April 7, 2021 Hey thanks man for your response! There are actually "spider webs". I think i will scrape them off and do a water change over and over again. Kinda neglected water change due to other commitments. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PulposTriste Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Looks like bacterial bloom bro, they sometimes make slime that will catch debris. I'm sure with some good husbandry, they'll be gone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
