Unknown eggs under frag plug

[cmcimino]

Any idea what these eggs are underneath a frag plug?

 

[divewsharks]

Are you referring to the white dots?

 

[Tank2379]

Those look like Flatworm eggs Polyclad Flatworm. You might want to start looking under some of your rock structure or other frag plugs or tiles. They are nocturnal

 

[Gernader]

If you are talking about the white dots, they are spirobid worms (harmless)

 

[cmcimino]

The lateral lines, they’re some sort of egg.

 

[Sosuke]

He's referring to the small lines with dots in them, I think they're some type of snail egg

From my experience. I have or had. Euphyllia eating poly.clad and their eggs are in just in bunches. These are actually in lines. Pretty orginized. I'm not sure

 

[divewsharks]

Can you just cut the frag off the plug and toss it?

 

[Tank2379]

See if you find one of these at night time or as stated trying looking under rocks and frag plugs and tiles if you have any.

That can be a start but hes gotta find the momma and poppa that keep laying them

I would honestly remove all the eggs before putting it in your DT. Better safe than sorry.

Sorry, You are correct, thought it was just a new frag.

Frags were cut and put on new plugs. These came from a wholesaler. Actually on a friends system.

When in doubt, throw it out. Unfortunately, if you can't make a positive ID, better safe than sorry IMO.

If this a new frag, I would cut it off that plug.
Plugs are the delivery mechanism for most of the pests we see in the hobby.

 

[BamboozleBean]

That’s interesting, whatever it is there will be a lot of them when they hatch. I would try and remove it.

Spirorbis worms nothing to worry about.

Spirorbis worms and I think those are flatworms eggs. Not positive on the eggs though.
