Oldsalt01 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Aptasia or mojano anemone, I believe. If so it needs to be gone. I’ll let smarter minds than mine chime in but if it is it’ll spread rather quickly. Looks healthy enough to become a problem. Pull thr frag if possible, scrape it off and cover the spot with super glue. Quote Link to comment
zamboni200000 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Aptasia. It’s a type of anemone and looks cool if it’s just one. The problem is it can spread like wild fire. get some lemon juice from concentrate. Throw a little in a mug in the microwave until it boils. Shoot the boiling lemon juice into the mouth of the aptasia using a syringe and you’ll never see it again. Good luck! Quote Link to comment
Heydude Posted October 20, 2018 Author Share Posted October 20, 2018 Thanks for the replies, only the one as far as I can see. Could I just blade it off, or would it likely grow back? Quote Link to comment
