    I have white growth on my live rock that looks like what I would describe best as a spider egg sack, Anyone have any ideas what this could be? I have several of them! Thanks

    You beat me to it Lee. Nice call! I have them in my sump and in my return areas. Not a lot just here and there. I don't see a concern really!
