white specks
 
Hello ever so knowledgeable reefing community. While gazing at my 93g cube this morning I noticed a sudden outbreak of what looks like pin-head sized white dots on my lr. should i be worried and any idea what this might be? Thanx

do they move?

Try to get a pick up if you can. This could be a ton of things.

Are they white dots or spirals?

hard to get a pick as they are very small. not spirals which i presume would be snail eggs. basically showed up over night.

Ick on rock and not fish? How would I rid myself of it

Am I in deep if it's ich on my LR. What's the safest way to rid of it? Help

it is not ich on your live rock. could be sponge, copapods, algae, whatever it is, a better description and a picture will help and it it very likely good or not harmful.

Cal_stir 08-17-2011 09:39 PM

agreed, not ich, ich must host a fish, probably copepods
