is it hard shell? I believe u shld know ID snail/nudis eggs.. Another potential growth on tank wall is spirorbid worms. Try goggle Spiral/spirorbid worms to match. Cheers..

Hope this goes thru...

Finally!!!

Thanks for the advice. CFOH. The resize option works!!!

And I dun think these white stuff are those mentioned by you.

They doesnt move, just stick themselves on the tank wall and now seems to be propagating and fast...

Try get predator wrasses like yellow, mysteries, radiant etc. They may help..

Flatworm thrive with high nutrient. Siphon them manually and frequent WC may helps.

Blue velvet nudibranch can be consume this flatworm. But their lifespan is short and slow.. Sometime they may RIP b4 kill all flatworm.

Beware, some flatworm may not safe to corals and some just cause discomfort. eg AEFW,

It's unlikely to be nudis. In fact, they are bloated like a sea squirt.

I googled for flatworm images and they are no way similar to those in my tank. They are not flat and bloated like sea squirt, like a hollow tube...

Spot on bro!!!

That is exactly what the white stuff in my tank looks like.

Though they are sponges, my dwarf and regal angels aren't interested at all.

Google said they are called pineapple sponges as well.

Are they considered pest?
