White Spot ID

[steph]

Hello all! I have noticed I have a few sponges growing around the base of my corals but they don’t seem to be doing any harm. While checking them out after lights out, I noticed some white spots on my clove polyps. Any idea what this could be? Should I dip? Thank you in advance!!

If you blow some water do they stay?

 

[steph]

yes they don't move at all

Have you seen anything crawling beside them?
Ot looks like they have been stung or burn .. Don't quote me on this ..just my opinion

It was sitting close to a toadstool but I now have it isolated on its own. It doesn't seem to be bothered by whatever the spots are, still opening nicely when the lights are on so I might just leave it be for now. The only thing that I think could have bothered it is I have some huge bristleworms that I can't bring myself to remove, but they haven't bothered anything else as far as I know so maybe I will just wait and see. Thanks for your help!
