Default What the heck is this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When I was re-doing the rock in my tank I reach into one of my overflows for what reason I dont know and found this. I have no idea what it is and if it is a good thing but there was a bunch of pods in it so I tried to shake out as many as possible into the tanks and put it back in the OF but I still would like to know what the heck it is.

You should keep it if you have emerald crabs as they eat that stuff I think?

Loudest part of my system would be the nagging sound I hear on a regular basis about how much time and money I spend on the tank.

Don't you have tangs? They'll probably eat that up in 30 seconds.
