    Looks like bubble algae to me. Emerald crabs love it. I've heard many tangs such as the hippo and yellow will chow down on the stuff if your tanks big enough. However, the pictures are blurry so I can't quite tell for sure.

    definitely bubble algae. if you can take that rock out, use a sharp knife and flick it off, try not to break the bubbles, if you do, give it a really quick fresh water dip!

    The Bubbles are white and on the end of a tentacle. It looks like the center is brownish orange, and has what aprears to be a mouth.
    all of the stuff is white. :confused:

    I went online and looked at pics of a strawberry anemones, and that is what it looks like. The pictures I took dont realy look like what is in the tank. It is eather that or a Pseudocorynactis. Thanks for everbodys help. I will have to let them grow a little bit and see.


    Are strawberry anemones Bad or Good?


    There is still one item I need to ID
