when i turned on my lights this morning i noticed a bunch of white spots under one of my rocks. they weren't there yesterday, at least not that i noticed. they remind me of the tips of an anenome, but i don't have an anenome in my tank anymore. they look white, with a hint of green on the tips. the picture is really bad, i don't have a zoom on my camera that keeps focus up close. the only pair in my tank would be my o. clowns, so i don't think these are fish eggs. any ideas?

i think they are to big for snail eggs. they are maybe 1/8 in long. they're all along the under side of the rock, and go way up into a crack. the more i look at the rock the more i see of them. there's probably 50-60. i don't think it's sponge since there are many long spots. at first glance i thought it was an anemone i "lost" a long time ago, but it's to long and skinny. i don't have a better camera to get a better picture. i guess i'll just have to wait it out and watch to see what happens.

Jess, I have no idea what it could be! Hmm, I guess the best choice would be to wait it out as you said.

i found some more of these little things this morning. they were on the glass so i was able to get a better picture. does anyone know what these could be? the ones on the rock are starting to turn black.

this one is from the top of the tank so you can see how long they are
