Hydroids?

[RamsReef]

They look like hydroids but on the branching one I can see a dark spot.

It is killing the one coral and growing on its white skeleton...

The other almost looks like sps hydroid on a lps.

Thanks?

This will sound crazy.
I have had numerous types hydroids over the years. including those. I have few if any now. I overfeed. feed Phyto, ova, snow, never rinse food. I have too many dissolved particles in the water (my NPS & feather dusters love it and my ridiculous bivalve collection too), so I wont stop.

Heres what I do. tooth brush them when I see them.I have lots of different snails. I don't kill all the asterinas(just most).
Now there may be absolutely no correlation to my "method" in reducing the number of hydroids. But I don't have any.

 

[RamsReef]

Your not crazy, just salty.

I was looking for the other kind of hydroids, I see them now, sorry for the tough luck. I like saltys method, most things don't flourish after a scrubbing. Maybe siphon while scrubbing to minimize the break and grow.

This is 2 days after I scrubbed and dipped in revive for 20 minutes.

I had em last year. Crazy as it sounds my peppermint shrimp cleaned them out, never to return.
