I'm w/ you, a-lot of people that see my tank comment on those beautiful pearls. They come and go, never become a problem. Same w/ Aiptasia.

you know whats wierd, in my old sump i used to have tons and tons of the black pearls (valonia), but never had them in my main display. lucky me?
if you ever see them turning clear, it means they are about to sexually reproduce. if you pop them they release spores, and will then become a nuisance. so it may be the best idea to just leave them be if you see them..... i also had a few aptasia' in my tank. i did pick them out, at least the ones that i could. i still had a few in the tank, and they dissapeared on thier own.....wonder where they went?
