My tank has now been up about 102 days. I only have 4 fish and about 40 lbs of live rock. I am starting to see all types of things sprouting from the live rock. What types of things should I be looking for on the live rock and can a brief description be provided for the most common?

that is a very hard question because there are always diff. thinks on diff. rocks depending on where the rock came from. ect. but they should all have coraline alage:D

liverock can have hundreds of different things. You may even get coral growth (montipora, etc...) and even urchins and starfish. But yea, Coraline (red or purple) algae is the #1 thing you want. The rest is a bonus.
