white fuzz on my millepora

walkerbrody · 02/04/2008, 07:39 PM

I bought a frag of millepora a month ago from the frag swap and it looks great. The last 2-3days I have seen fuzzy white stuff on a few places on the frag. It goes away after a little while. Any Ideas what this might be?

The current has washed it away. I will take a pic and repost it if it happens again.

It is sliming for some reason. Maybe you have a snail, crab or fish thats bugging it.
