Just curious is a small aiptasia would hurt/kill a green bubble tipped anemone? We see a small aiptasia near the base of our BTA, should we be concerned? Or is it just a small irritation?

should be fine, aptaisa have weaker nematocystes than bubble tips i belive, and the base of BTAs are pretty thick and sturdy. i would think the BTS would sting the Apt. eventualy and it will move away.

JMHO of course

My RBTA won't open if there are any aiptasia near by...stupid thing won't move either, it just sits all shriveled up in its hole until I kill the aiptasia :lol:
