    I purchased 14lbs of LR yesterday from my LFS and on one of the rocks there is some white mucus in a large cavity, this same rock has some tiny fans that look like coco worms, but I'm not sure what this white mucus is. Could this be some type of egg sack? The 10 gal tank was just setup with live sand and the rock. Any thoughts?
