We have little white bugs crawling all over our frogspawn. Does anyone have an idea what they might be? They seem to be confined to this one coral in particular. At first I thought they were little micro bubbles then I noticed they were crawling around. They are small and hard to photograph, this is the best picture I could come up with.

Frogspawn bugs...........:confused: Actually Ive seen several cases of this in the last year. Ive never seen them ID'ed and if memory serves correct they wont kill the coral.
 
i've had them on one of my frogspawns (seems to leave the other 4 types alone) for well over a year now. The "infected" frogspawn doesn't always open up as big as the others but other then that I've seen no other negative affects. Let me know if you find any more info.

I've done some looking and haven't been able to come up with an answer so far. They don't seem to be killing the frogspawn but like you say it doesn't seem to stretch out as big as it used to.
