Aiptasia Confirmation

[andywg]

Can anyone confirm my belief that I am the proud owner of some aptasia? Shame really, if it had been on the frogfish tank I wouldn't mind as I could just leave it there...

And while I am looking for hitchhiker ID, any ideas on what I believe to be a bi-valve?

Cheers

Defo an Aiptasia mate

Get the JJ out

 

[Mr Miagi]

Agreed. Aiptasia. You do have a Bivalve, ive got some similar to that. Unsure of an exact ID. Hav'nt looked for one....

Behind the bivalve is a crab though!

 

[andywg]

Aye, the Emerald crab was giving a bit of a leg shot for that pic.

I shall commence the eradication of the nasty this evening.

I had a few apista and got rid of them quick with some peppermint shrimp which are still alive and doing well. dave

Well, as there was only one I thought I would try manual removal. Pulled the small hunk of LR he was on out, scraped him off with scissors, and then blasted that area with some tap water to get some chlorine on any small fragments that might remain.

Now I just have to wait to see if any more are in there...
