    This is attached to the skeleton of the frog spawn and you can see its foot move like trying to go to another rock at times. There are a bunch of these in a friends tank and they are attaching to the glass and moving about where they want to go. Some of the heads are the size of dimes to nickels. Thanks in advance.

    It is soft and as I said the foot moves. These are attached to the glass on another friends tank and they seem to move where they want.

    ive found majano's much easier to scrape off, most of the ones i have had in the past had fairly thick bases making it a breeze to scrape and toss. Just make sure to scrub the area really well with some paper towel and RO water after your done.

    Well by looking at picks I can't see any that look just like it but some do look similar. I hate to blast it with joes juice if its good but don't think I am going to take a chance. Blast time.

    Partly the reason you have a new tank is some nuisance hitch hikers. Better safe than sorry.

    This is what it looks like at lights out. I didn't blast it yet. What do you think MAJANO still. It looks like a bubble.
