White filament ID

Squid_reef · Dec 9, 2021

Hello,

I have theses whites filaments coming out of most of my rocks, not sure if it's only common algae starting to grow out or something I should worry about?

Anyone that could help me ID them?
The tank is new, only finished cycle past couple of days.

I haven't got any cuc, fish nor coral yet.

Thanks

Can’t open video but exposing to air a couple of minutes and then trimming with a razor in a container of tank water

Thanks @vetteguy53081 - sorry I didn't realised the video couldn't be played.

Here's a gif from it so hopefully someone can have a clearer view on that.
Copy that about cleaning it, I was wondering if anyone would have any though about 'what could it be?'

Thanks.
Squid

I have the same growing like weed on the rocks.Any ideas on what it is and if it’s removable?

Hi Reef,
I haven't find out what it was in the end, but it didn't expand much more than what it actually did in the first place.
It's also getting eaten by my cuc.

I'm personally not too worry anymore about it.
