Growth on live rock during cycling process..

[matthewjpasa]

Hey all - been few day into the cycling process, and im new to the hobby in general.

Is the growth on my live rock a good thing or is it a contaminate?

Hoping for reliable and possitive feedback!

Thanks in advance.

Looks like a mushroom to me

If it's a mushroom it's good

Whatever grows will either survive the cycling process or die and help the cycle along...its a win, win situation :bigsmile:
