I think what he means is, if you slow down and type slower, the message will be conveyed better to us and we might better be able to help you.

Hey David,
Are these two unrelated occurances or did the 'slug' come out of the hole left by the 'egg'? Is LWB a LMB? What's a LWB?
I can only guess without a couple good pictures, but it could be a sponge that was growing in the rock. Another possibility is a rock boring clam was there, died, and started to disintegrate.
Can you describe the slug better? was it slow, fast, any distinguishing parts?

David maybe it is some sort of mutant growth resulting from your blatently overstocked tank and highly toxic water

david what is a lwb? we are tryign to help you out, but you seem to concenttrate on those who are picking on ya...If you answered Bang guy's questiosn we might be able to make soem progress. what do you mean that it looked liek an egg inside the live rock? Could you see throough the rock? was there a hole that was covered by somehtign, that was transparent? And what is this slug thing you are describing. what exxact;y did it look like? Any pics? Im thinking mantis shrimp as some of the others have, especialls if its agressive attackign you LWB9 what is that anyway???)
good luck

i dontknow if it was a slug it look slimmy though. i have never seen it again . i have been finding pieces of live rock all over know but i dont hear and clicking noise . the egg i dont know if it was . the rock was solid then started to bubble out and something must have came off it and next day half of it was hanging off like something broke out of it the other half was on my sand

I tried to tell you before, you should type slower. People can not understand your english/typing. Most of your posts have at least 20 mistakes in them.

again you defend yourself rather than providign answers to our questiuons about your situation. re-read the posts by Bang Guy and myself and answer some of the questions so that we can try to figure out your situation. if not, then i have tried my best, adn good luck to you

I don't know where these people learned to read but I understood everything you said. I might be wrong, but it sounds like a bristle worm. They will eat away at your live rock and hollow em out. They also will get inside your coral and eat them inside out. I found one inside my open brain. If you find him again don't grab him with your fingers cause they pack a powerful sting. Other than that they look like a slimy slug.
