    I figure this would be a good time to post this since the Scallop is closed right now. I hope this is in the right section too. I didnt see a "Scallop" section. Sorry if it is in the wrong place.

    I purchased this at my LFS about 3 months ago. It was the only one that had this weird growth "Syphon" looking thing if you will. I am not sure what it is. Do you guys have any ideas?
