Hi All I found these jelly blobs on the rock with a Zoa colony on. I was dipping the rock last night in RODI water to rid it of Nudibranches and today took a closer look at it for any signs of Nudi eggs but I found these little jelly blobs?
I have been searching and drawn a blank so far and don't know what to do about them. I bought the colony about 5 weeks ago from my LFS. The only livestock in my tank is a pair of Clowns, a Royal Grammar and a White stripe cleaner shrimp. None of the fish go near the coral but the shrimp had shed its exoskeleton last week I assume by squeezing its self through the small gap behind the Zoa colonies rock and the main piece its sat on as thats where I found it stuck and where the jelly things are now. I thought it was dead until I found the actual shrimp hiding in his usual hole lol. I suppose I can wait until they develop inside a bit more and put one under a microscope to try and identify the contents. But I am sure all the knowledge and years of experience here can resolve my curiosity.
