help! what is this, is good thing?
 
I got some base rock from my friend. it come alot of that thing and red worm. I believe the red worm would'nt harm my reef and fish. but that thing?....:question:
I put it in a black bucket with power head and heater. If this is bad thing, can I cover the cover 'cook' it monthes and kill the bad thing?

thanks!!!!!

It figures that this thread is the only thread my computer will let me answer :lol:

What "thing" are you talking about. Here are a couple of sites that can help you identify hitchhikers

That looks like an aiptasia anemone. In my experience it would take a long, long time to kill those by *cooking* . Peppermint shrimp, joes juice or kalk paste injected into the anemone may be the best bet

I think you should go get a bottle of Joes Juice, it looks as though you have quite a few.

You actually use a small syringe and squirt right into the anemone not just put it in the tank.

GREAT pics by the way! (It's so nice when ID-me pics are clear!)

thank you all you nice guy
 
cause it was put in the black bucket, I don't care damage all the stuff in the bucket. I just wondering the easy way put a great amount of baking soda instead put the JJ's or kalk, is it will work? and the rock still live?

thankssssss!!!!!
