![]() These little reddish things are growing on a rock. They are less that 1/4" high and like a little forest. They disappear in the rock when approached. Can anyone tell me what they might be. Sorry for the bad pic, but they are very, very tiny.

![]() They possibly could be Hydroids. If they are they are a pest and not good.

![]() That is what I thought as well but hard to tell from the picture.

![]() Looked up pictures on the internet of Hydroids and I think that is what they are. I've got them in a 10 gal tank. Any ideas of how to get rid of them or am I better off removing the zoanthids from the rock and getting rid of the rock?

![]() Yes, they are in the contest tank. Sorry I didn't put a value on them as I figured they were a free hitchhiker.
![]() I just pulled the rock, doused it in Apitasia X and scrubbed it in with a toothbrush. The zoanthid is starting to open, the mushroom doesn't look so good but the little forest has not yet appeared. I guess I'll wait and see what it looks like tomorrow.
