OK, first off I know I posted this in a different thread but I got new pics of the white dots that are growing on my glass.I discovered though that I have an overload of copepods in my tank that were also on the glass which confusing me so my questions are:

In this picture,can anyone make out what the white dots might be?


In these last 2 can anyone tell what the pinkish redis little growths are?Are they some kind of polyp?mushroom?



Thanks in advance,Taylor

Taylor,
I think whatyou are seing is a couple of things. a closer pictures of the red stuff woudl be better if possible.
1st might be pods on te glass, are they moving around in on set direction? as the matures and the pod population expands/explodes they will cover the glass on all sides until you clean the glass or they decide the substrate is a better place to hang out.
2nd looks like a the formation of some sponge but not to sure as of yet.

As for the redish pink things, I have those in my tank too. They are hard and brittle to the touch. I figured they weren't spreading and looked nice.. I think it is some sort of hard sponge or coral? Not sure, but doesn't seem to be anything to worry about..
