Woke up today and have this stuff covering all the rocks and corals.

is this Alcaligenes faecalis? Is this something that can be fixed with carbon?

I’m not aware of any aerosols that have been sprayed lately.

Pics are dark and fuzzy but I wonder if mucus webs from vermetid snails or other pest.
 
Seems like a lot of mucus all at once. I’ve had vermitid outbreaks but they are nearly gone at this point.
Can you provide clearer pics under white lighting ?

Another thought- In lower salinity, some snails can cause this webbing as water is dense at low salinity
 
This might be clearer. R2R seems to ruin most photos I post.


I blew most of it off. Seemed to be more prominent higher up.
