    No pics yet. I'll try to take some good ones.

    1) This morning when I woke up and turn the lights on, i noticed a bug/snail/something slowly moving on one of the rocks. At first i thought it was some kind of slime/debris, but noticed it was moving. It was about lady bug in size and shape, greenish/white and fuzzy. Could not see any legs, but there were two small antenas up front like an ant. He crawled into a dark cave and thats it. Any ideas?

    2) I got white fuzzy bubbles in many places on my dead rocks. Most are smaller than a penny. Especialy large ones (the size of a silver dollar) are underneath the rock in dark places. I moved one and it came off really easy like a big snot ball. Underneath it on the rock was some jet black dust.

    P.S. The tank is almost 2 weeks old and still cycling.

    Thanks.

    I think you're right about the snail. I found some pics online and it looked exactly like this pic. Hopefully he'll eat the bubbles if they are algea.
