Egg ID

Hello, recently got some frags from aqua SD and noticed 3 eggs slightly smaller than a pea each. They’re transparent and I can see a little “squiggle” contained in them. Anyone have any idea what they could be?

I don't know, but that is a very poor looking frag from ASD.

I would cut open the egg sacs, dip the coral, dunk in clean saltwater, then squirt hydrogen peroxide everywhere except the polyps to get rid of that nasty algae and anything else, leave it a minute or two then back into clean saltwater for observation.

Almost looks like a flatware even the tissue has pulled away from where it's at.

Yeah definitely dip & squirt as aggressively as you can. I got some stuff from AquaSD on one of their sales awhile ago and got some great frags for great prices, and I can't complain, most adapted well. But of the few online vendors i've ordered from, they definitely needed the most cleaning (not as bad as this, but had flatworms, etc)

Aware of the GHA and have been fighting it/trimming it back. The frag looks a lot better usually, I’m this pic I had to briefly take it out of the water to grab my phone so it was really pissed off. I’ve done peroxide dips here and there as I’ve been fighting GHA, but buying another handful of chaeto for my refugium has really decreased new growth!
