Just finished a WC and scouting for Aiptasia to target with Aiptasia-X, I found this.

What the heck is it? Should I be concerned about it and try to remove it?

Please ID and advise.

Thanks!

Looks like egg clutches (maybe snail eggs?) How big are they? Hard to tell from the pics. Almost look like weird chain of round barnacles.

Looks like an Upside down Octopus showing its legs and tentacles.

I would have said egg clutches as well.... But the holes in the middle are throwing me off. Not sure mang! Wierd lookin for sure.

Have you touched them yet? Soft or Hard? Could be some form of barnacle if they are hard.

A sign of good water as they are difficult to keep.
