Yes, but never in my ponds. Bryozoans.
"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"
If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.

I've heard they are a sign of good water quality.
Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:"
"She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."

Yes we have those in a lake we fish here a nice cool clear deep lake. You will find them on the standing trees and stumps normally. Sunil is correct in saying if they are there you it a good sign that your water is in great condition! By the looks of it you would think "Oh man something must be wrong" but it's just the opposite something is right  RC
The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!

so what is this? Is it a 'jelly egg' like thing? Wiki gives a better description: The Bryozoa, also known as Polyzoa, Ectoprocta or commonly as moss animals, are a phylum of aquatic invertebrate animals. Typically about 0.5 millimetres (0.020 in) long, they are filter feeders that sieve food particles out of the water using a retractable lophophore, a "crown" of tentacles lined with cilia. Most marine species live in tropical waters, but a few occur in oceanic trenches, and others are found in polar waters. One class lives only in a variety of freshwater environments, and a few members of a mostly marine class prefer brackish water. Over 4,000 living species are known. One genus is solitary and the rest colonial.
