    Hi Folks,

    This started growing and I have no clue what it is. It is very tough if you try to touch it. Bright lemon yellow in color. Anyone know what it is and if it is harmful >?

    I think your lemon yellow something is a lemon sponge, thier spicules are calcareous so that would explain why it is "tough". A harmless filter feeder and imo a great score!
