Default Help identifying these purple and orange things (algae, sponge..mushroom??)
I have a lot of these little things growing in my tank. They are purplish with orange dots. The largest ones are the size of a smarty.

My water parameters are all within the normal ranges other than my ph which has been a little low. Nitrate 0, Phos 0, nitrite 0, ammonia 0 but was up to 25 2 weeks ago after my eel died when we were on holidays and it decomped a little in the water. I got it out in one piece though and levels are back to zero after 3 water changes.

Anyways, here are a few crappy iPhone pics. Hopefully they are good enough for a ID.

THANKS GUYS!
