These two things I noticed on the stalk/rock frag of some frogspawn when I bought it a few months ago. Only now do I have it out in the open where I can see it better. The top I looks to me too symetrical to just be nothing, but maybe my imagination. The bottom has definitely grown from one circular polyp/head to the three currently - still slightly smaller than a dime. I don't know what either are...

The second photo is a much better representation of the true color.

Looks bad, really bad! I'd better come and get those swollen brain frags off you before they cause any harm. When can I get them? LOL.......Good score!

LMAO - Wouldn't want Tim's gorgeous tanks to be infested with that horrible stuff ... I can come get them and see if I can unload them on some poor novice reefer ;)

I was hoping y'all would think it was a brain. It looked closest to a brain or moon to me.

I didn't mean to imply that I thought either was a pest by using the word hitch hiker.

I figure I have plenty of time, but I guess I should break that portion off from the frogspawn?

Any idea on the top item? I don't even have an idea on that one - if it's anything.
