So I started a new tank with a power head, filtration, 10k and actinic bulbs, a moon light, live sand, live rock, and water from the local store. It has been cycling for 24 hours now and I have noticed a change on the live rocks already. The rocks came with some growth already on them and a mushroom. I have noticed a few hitch hikers as well, Some actually walking.
Today I went to turn the lights off and noticed the live rock has white spots all over them. They were not there at the store nor yesterday. I have been watching it all day and it does not seem to be getting worse but some spots are in a cluster. They can be picked off with effort and seem to be pretty solid almost like calcium build up.
Any idea on what these are? Is it dead spots from transport?
Able to post pics now if anyone didn't see.
