No worries. They aren't even trying to scratch the acrylic. Even though they are only micro-abrasions...it's darn annoying to not have crystal...
This sounds very much like the dinoflagellate called Marine Velvet as opposed to clownfish disease (which would be black). Can you get a pic?
I don't know what your spots are. However, I do know they aren't pod eggs
They are reef safe but they aren't acrylic tank safe. While cleaning algae off the acrylic, they can accidentally scratch it.

It somehow got injured and a bacterial infection ate the whole mushroom. The next time you see slime like that on a mushroom, do a dip with iodine.
Occasionally give it some meaty foods like krill, shrimp, etc and you'll be good. It will find a spot it likes somewhere near the top of your tank...
Definitely don't help it. You could easily rip it's foot which can cause death. What type of lighting do you have?
Are you planning on putting this seahorse in a species tank or are you going to try and keep a clownfish in with it? Seahorses should have their own...
