Got my live rock about 2 weeks ago and this little thing was one lone twig looking protrusion. Since then it has branched and grown several more little arms. They don't move and grow pretty fast.

Now, can anyone tell me what it is?

ChrisReef I believe is right, There was a picture of a couple days ago that there was this humongous piece just like it. I believe people said to pull it off, I forgot the reason why though.

I think it's fine... but if you see it popping up in other places, i'd say remove it just in case - but I think it's a harmless caulerpa - most of us don't see it because many people have tangs - wich eat it.

Thanks. I'll leave it for now. Do you know of anything else that eats it?
