    Sister-in-law called today, wanted me to look at her tank.

    No idea what these egg like things are.

    Two of the 'egg' thing, one of some kind of stringy thing coming off of the bottom of her rock, and one of some kind of SPS coral???

    I'm sure she'd appreciate any help!

    As always - you guys all rock, I love 3reef!

    That white growth on the LR kinda looks like a Hammer coral.

    First picture may be nudibranch eggs but I'm guessing. Hard to tell what's in the second picture. May be a sponge?

    I think the first and forth pic is Padina Algae
    The second is a sponge
