Flounder Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Any thoughts on this? Growing out of the rock, not from the coral plug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muttley000 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Aptasia anemone. Get the clubs wand and nuke it jeff70, ErickS and hllywd 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwentworth Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I pulled my rock out of the tank, put drops of lemon juice on it and then I hit it with super glue. I let it set out for a few hours in a separate container before returning to the tank. no signs of any new Aptasia thus far. Oh and don't not pour any of the container water into the tank in case a spore popped off. Flounder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hllywd Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Peppermint shrimp are the best thing i ever tried. Depends how big your tank is and how many you have lurking in the rock. I have a couple that have snuck into my 200, no way to physically check everyplace in there and I've never had great success with manual methods anyway. I'm a little concerned about compatibility with my cleaner shrimp, but there isn't going to be much choice for me. Flounder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had good luck with peppermints too, but they steal food from my corals Flounder 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flounder Posted August 14, 2018 Author Share Posted August 14, 2018 I only have 1 aptasia at the moment so I will try the wand. If I have an outbreak later the Peppermint will come into play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
