Plug Ugly Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 10 day old LR started sprouting these things and don't know what they are. Good or bad? Link to comment
kirbaay Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 first picture is an aptasia and the second picture has green payls and a kenya tree. Get rid of the aptasia ASAP Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Yep. Left picture is aptasia, BAD. Right is good I think. Look up how to get rid of aptasia- its important you do it ASAP or it will spread. Link to comment

amphipod Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 aiptasia, great in a species only tank but they don't always get along well with other corals. since its just the one id say point a powerhead or something next to it ( not directly on it because tearing it would not be the best thing to do) for a few minutes so it will detach then net the floating anemone.

dragonxflare Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Joe's Juice works well for aiptasia, from what i heard Link to comment
ndrobey Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Get a syringe. It doesn't need a needle, so you don't need a prescription. Boil some white vinegar. Suck the hot vinegar up into the syringe. Get the syringe as close to the mouth (it's in the center on the aiptasia), and inject the hot vinegar into the mouth. Link to comment
Plug Ugly Posted July 23, 2015 Author Share Posted July 23, 2015 Boiling water and a syringe did wonders! Link to comment
