white spots on live rock?

[BaaMNYC]

Hey everyone, You guys are the best at helping me with all my problems. I got another question for everyone.

I keep seeing more white spots appear on my live rock. wondering what it was if its harmful or just natural. thanks

P.S. i know its a blurry picture. took it with my iphone this morning. i can take a better one with my SLR if necessary.

i know i have to give it time and wait. just noticed 24 people view this thread with no feedback. getting kinda nervous that its something irregular.

You have Nerite snails in your tank? Look like eggs but pic is blurry.

It can probbly be some type of white sponge growing on the rocks. Not really sure

Flat worm? Grab a toothpick and poke it. See if it comes off.
