I added a new piece of live rock to my 55 gal reef a couple of weeks ago and I think I brought in something bad. I have been working on the tank this week and any time I grab a piece of live rock to move I end up with fingers full of what look like glass splinters. I've never had this problem before. I thought they were remnants of a sponge that had died but now I've gotten the splinters from touching the other rocks in the tank also. When I took my hand out of the tank I had literally 100's of them in my fingers. Most of them fell off when I rubbed my hand on my shirt but a few I needed tweezers to remove. What the heck are these and how do I get rid of them???
