Riddex Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 I purchased this yesterday and dropped it into the tank, I obviously wasnt paying attention as Ove just noticed this. Is it Aptasia, if so should I take it back to my LFS or can I easily treat? Quote Link to comment
DreC80 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Yes aptasia or majano. Either way you don't want it. Many people use red sea aptasia x to treat them. I've not had much luck with aptasia x...the aptasias always seem to come back. I've had the most luck with F aptasia by Frank's Tanks. That stuff has worked awesome for me. Just do a Google search for it. Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 Aiptasia x works great. Sometimes you have to do it a few times- aiptasia moves so you gotta lather it and quickly before it closes up and moves. You also need to do it with all water movement off for 10- 15mins. Quote Link to comment
Garf Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 If that is still on the plug, i'd take it out and treat it. The least amount you can disturb the aptasia, the better. It is a good practice to remove frags from a plug, dip, and remount onto a new clean plug. Quote Link to comment
