    Lol yeah I'm on my cellphone and my phone says four but tapatalk says 2 lol...I just got home from the bar so that doesn't help much either lol. I had something that kinda looks like that but was encrusted and in the middle of an across. It just kinda looks like a hole but you can see something come out of it once in a while that's almost clear/white that looks like a tongue/tentacle.

    Yeah if it wants to move it will. They can move very well but they can.

    I think I'm looking at the end of a true mussel. It shouldn't be a problem.

    Cheers,

    Thanks guys I did a water change and moved my sun poly a little further from my frogspawn and forgot about it. lol it looks like a mussel its just sitting on the gravel opens up late at night should I place it on a piece of LR? I don't want to forget and suck him up when i'm doing a water change.
