Hi all, my tank has been cycling for a little over 3 weeks now. It is a 29g HQI nanocube with 40 pounds live sand and 30 pounds live rock. Like 4 snails, and 2 blue hermit crabs.
This one thing on a rock has been there since about the beginning, I finally thought I should take a pic and see if it is anything. It is blueish in color and is about the size of a pencil eraser. Thanks in advance for any ideas!!

Very difficult to see in the pic, dunno what it might be.

Bubble algae perhaps?

I dont think it is bubble algae, because I think it is solid. Blue in color, and looks like it is growning from the rock. I will try to get a closer picture. Thanks for the feedback! Pretty neat website you sent cloak, I am looking at it now!
