Deadlykorean Posted November 7, 2003 Share Posted November 7, 2003 Spotted the thing while taking this pic: Look left to the beautiful aiptasia anemone (found two of these little bastards on my new rock) and you can see these tiny white dandelion-seed looking things. Upon further inspection, I can spot many of these things all over my rock. Any clue as to what they are? Tell me juvenile aiptasia dont look like that. Link to comment

Fant Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 Its impossible to give an accurate ID. Difficult to even determine if its a cnidarian or not from just a picture. Link to comment
captain7359 Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 what are aiptasia?? and if there bad i hope these aren't them because i have them on quite a bit of my rocks. I have a fo and it's been up for 3 months now and i was hoping someone would know what they are. only about 1/8" to 1/4" high. i don't think their any sort of algae because their growing on the bottow of some of my rocks which are in the dark.

Jeff D2 Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 The highlighted one on the left are tube worms (Good) , The highlighted one on the right looks like a small aptasia (Bad). Keep a close eye on the one on the right. hth Jeff Link to comment

Just do a search for aptasia then spend the rest of your life trying to kill it. Link to comment
