An inch long is kinda big for poop from something in your reef! even if it was your damsel it wouldn't be that big. 8O

Any chance for a photo?
 
no i don't think it's from the damsel. Some type of hitcher a star or something that i havent seen. Im saying that cause i just got some hermits and i saw them spit some little sommilar things out as there eating alea it was just a thought It is starting to bother me a bit because i see them more and more they look almost zebra striped and when i picked one up it broke apart. i think there too small for a picture

If a sediment or detritus feeder alternately eats light & dark colored food the feces will be alternately light & dark colored as well.
