What are those tiny white spots???

[geno]

I'm getting some tiny perfectly round white spots on the overflows and I noticed some on a few rocks and even on some snails.

What the heck is it

Do I have a problem that needs attention ASAP?

Thank you!

nothing to worry about.

Yeah, if they bother you just scrape them away.

You're not coming to the meeting are you Gene?

Haha, no trick photography there, either. Just really weird. Those are all sunglasses from my girlfriend's car, with the exception of mine.

Thank you -- this reef stuff is rattling every nerve I have.

I've mentioned that this hobby was supposed to be relaxing -- NOT (yet anyway). After I get through some of the 'growing pains' I expect things to get pretty 'normal'.

I'm planning my first water change tomorrow -- the the storms don't blow is away overnight.

I'm gonna try and make one of the meetings in the near future. I think they're the 1st Tuesday of every month. I'll make plans.

The white dots, if calcified, are spirorbid worms. Here's a super macro shot of a couple, as well as some coralline algae spreading on the glass:
