Yeah, it's a possibility that what you see is aptasia. I would say it's a even greater possibility that those little things coming off the side of the frogspawn are baby frogspawn sprouts. That's a good thing, because in a few months those little sprouts will be new frogspawn heads.

If it's just on the frogspwan though and it is aptasia, the aptasia would probably be stung to death. If on the other frags it might be aptasia or manjano.


Edit: I just thought that the little white thing on the bottom of the acan might be a new baby acan also.

Could also be pineapple sponges, which would also be a good thing.
