Does anybody know what these little gray balls are?
So I saw a little round ball floating around in my overflow and thought nothing of it, but then I was moving around some frags and saw 2 more of these dark gray, almost black balls on the a plug. Anybody know what these are?

I bet they are actually greenish. Looks like Valonia/bubble algae.

Pull them out by hand and try not to pop them. They reproduce when popped. They feed on nutrients in the water.
