scobri Posted May 25, 2002 Author Share Posted May 25, 2002 some sort of anemone?...purple in color...doesnt come through in pic Link to comment
NanoReefer53 Posted May 25, 2002 Share Posted May 25, 2002 The tube is probably part of a tube worm. i got a couple of those in my tank Link to comment
gabe3eb Posted May 25, 2002 Share Posted May 25, 2002 In your second pic I think I can see a pic of aptasia. That ain't necessarily good by any means, but everyone seems to have a problem with these pesky anemones at some time or the other. They sting other corals and reproduce fast... There are several ways to get rid of them, the best of which is the natural way. Peppermint Shrimp eat these things and if you add one before that one gets to big, it will take care of that one and any future ones that you might have... Almost positives after second glance that that is what you have. GL, hth, gaber Link to comment
