spiderwebs?

[yayfishies]

I just changed my water for the first time and noticed that my one live rock looks like it has spiderwebs all over it. What is it?!

Welcome to te site!
I don't know what to call them. They are little critters that live in the rock and shoot a "web" out to catch food. They are ugly but harmless unless they are bothering corals. They don't live long and will go away in about a month.

Yep that's most likely it, cutting back on food will help get rid of them but as stated before don't do any harm unless irritating corals.
