Maybe the reason for my Opaes biting the dust? Looks kinda strange.

Where did the rock come from and what type is it?

Its hard to tell really, you can either leave it be and see what happens next or take it out and boil/clean it in some distilled/RO water and re add it to your tank.

I'm not sure about the lime but does it just look like fuzz or does it look more like spider web style up close?
