This is base of frog spawn.

The blobby thing looks like a sponge. The stalky things look like hydroids. I have nothing for the thready things. Are they hard? Do they bend or break if you touch them?

It looks like a combination of sponges, Vermetid snails and calcareous tube worms IMO.

This is my first (maybe second) trip down "what is this?" Lane. Sure more to follow. Appreciate the responses, hydroids would be a problem? If I let be and observe, what should I look for as far as negative impacts on the fs? Thanks people's!

The frog seems to be affected, color is fine but it's not fully opening. I just adjusted powerheads, could it be reacting to flow. Should I dip it just to be safe?
