Hi Sarah,

It looks like a palythoa zoo. Not Aptasia. :)

[sumpfinfishe]

Looks to me like Mojano or Aptasia, either way blast it with some kalkwasser and hot water:twised:

[Ruth]

Look like a Mojano anemone to me.

Im voting palythoa,
But a larger Pic whould make it easier to confirm.

Kill it before it spreads!

I think I see a bubble algae too.

[Chaloupa]

Thanks guys for all the info! Will kill it right away. and YES deep6er that is bubble algae and I have lots to share so send me your address!:wink:

It's not a mojano or aptasia. But if you feel it's not reef friendly do what you must. I have seen both first hand and can tell you it's niether. Mojano's have much thicker digit fingers. Although it might be a type of anemonie good or bad is hard to say without actually seeing it first hand. I have a wild colony of Palythoa's that look exactly like that but are much greener and of course reef safe.

HTH.

True. Majano looks like small green & pink bubble tip anemones.

Well....have not killed it yet...am getting mixed stuff. It does seem to irritate the neighbouring zoos....will think on this! THANKS!....:biggrin: If anyone else has any info...bring it on!

Trumpet Anemone Aiptasia mutabilis? Looks kinda like this species of pest anemone. I find it usually comes on imported zoo rocks.

It closely looks like a palythoa but like I said it still may be a pest anemonie of some sort. If it is irritating the other zoos then I would would nuke it. Better safe than sorry.

How are all your tanks doing Sarah??? Any new additions??

[deacon hemp]

Hey sarah...I belive this came from a frag from me? :( I have a few of them still and they do multiply but at a slow rate,so i'd nuke it. Sorry.

[Chaloupa]

Hey "Deacon"-no worries....these things happen. It has been nuked and it was a bit of a good thing as it made me really look at my tank and I found a bit of a "problem" that I may not have noticed had this not been there....hopefully my new "problem" will be solved by a quick purchase from J&L's~ And Callum.....PM being sent your way on our fishies, tanks, new tanks, tank for sale, and of course family! Thanks to everyone who took the time to reply! Sarah
