new rock

[Joeysmissy]

i got a new rock with corals..this is on the bottom..there is only two clear bubbles. when i look closer i can see little white balls inside the bubbles..i have touched them and they feel soft..anyone know what they are? eggs maybe?

 

[Joeysmissy]

also this is on the rock too.its orange and neon pink..tubes are neon pink. the orange has some kind of tentacles sticking out of it. anyone know what it is? sponge maybe?

The bubbles could be some sort of egg. They sound weird.

The pink stuff seems like some sort of tunicate, which are related to sponges and are reef-safe. I've never seen one like that before, though. You got some interesting live rock there, full of life!

since i don't know what layed those eggs would it be wise to pull them off and toss them?

I'd leave 'em, just for curiosity's sake...

It's probably something related to a tunicate or sponge or something we haven't seen or heard of before. There are so many strange little growing things out there. I'd leave it. Unless it begins to multiply and take over, it's fine.
