White thin spider web type string

[Alex.M.]

So this morning I woke up and my tank 2as covered in this spider web type substance. Over all the rocks, macro algae and stand. I do not have corals and have had no new additions to the tank. Last night everything was fine the tank, parameters were normal. My fish seem to be acting normal as with my urichin, cuc, and 4 feather dusters.

Ugh! I was really hoping it wasnt. But how did they appear in my tank? I haven't added anything new in over a month?

Possibly came in on any live rock or macro algae. They can spread like wildfire and can be a pain to get rid of.

My snails [emoji222] will sometimes leave stings on the glass similar to this. But never this heavy.

I couldn't find any. Stupid snails! But I did scrape out all the slime. Washed all my Marco algae, live rock, and top portion of my sand bed. Thanks for your help!
