MultipleTankSyndrome Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Is this Aiptasia and if so what would be the safest way to remove it? They area located on / within a frogspawn coral that I bought a week or so..... I am worried hydrogen peroxide or lemon juice will be too harsh based on location but you tell me what you think. I'm still a newbie at reefing so any help/advice is greatly appreciated. P.S. In hindsight, I know I should have dipped the coral. I learned my lesson 😞 Quote Link to comment

MultipleTankSyndrome Posted September 14, 2018 Author Share Posted September 14, 2018 Thank you for the advice @WV Reefer and @Euphylin me ! I just hit it with a tiny bit of super glue since its on the bottom of the frag. If I see it come up anywhere else I'll have to buy some aptasia-x for sure! 2 Quote Link to comment
Aurortpa Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 I use hydrogen peroxide and lemon juice solution, stick into and inject inside the stalk, it will melt away—you can get a single needle syringe from your pharmacy, you might just need to explain why you need it. 1 Quote Link to comment

I'll have to remember that @aurortpa! Luckily I have a bunch of syringes from amazon from dosing my planted tanks 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment
