New tank... identify hitch hikers!

[ferro]

I am about 2 weeks into my cycle with a new tank. I have 47lbs of dry rock and about 8lbs of cured rock from my LFS. The rocks from my LFS have a few things on them that are just starting to appear now. Sorry for bad phone pictures. I need a better camera.

These may be feather dusters? Top middle of brown rock 2 of them

Small little flapper things that are shaped like a clam shell 2 of them yellowish right above the clump of bubbles towards the bottom.

Also getting a lot of bubbles coming off my rock

Your newly setup tank's live rock is probably experiencing a bit of an photosynthetic algae bloom. Keep an eye on it to make sure it isn't the beginnings of something else like dinos, calathrix or bubble algaes. Here's a good link for referring to while watching those bubbles: https://www.reefcleaners.org/nuisance-algae-id-guide

Thanks for the useful link! Do those look like feather dusters or do I need a better picture?
