| Tunicate |  newby to the sanctuary! hey there, i'm new to the sanctuary but not to the hobby. i was looking for info on possible reef pests and stumbled onto to this web site which seems to be the place to talk with others about the hobby. i have a 46 hex reef and have recently started a 72 bow front fish with liverock only. it's been running for two months with liverock and snails and crabs and is ready for the first fish but now i've noticed these little white bugs on the glass. they scoot around and theres thousands of them!!! i've never seen these and would love to know what they are and if they're harmful to fish before i put anything in there. any help would be awesome. thanks kelly |
