Hi fellow reefers;

Can help to id this creature??

Thanks alot.

I think you should get rid of it. It call a aprixxx or something like that.

It will sting your fish and coral when it gets bigger.

looks like aptasia . should be an anemone

[gtrigger]

I think it should not do any harm to fish or corals since it's still small.

I will keep an eye on it.

Thanks guys...

It will multiply fast...

[gtrigger]

Are you sure??

Have seen only one leh..

[mingwen1611]

wait and see... they dun multiply immediately...

[twilight]

they're known to be LR hitchhiker pests! if dun eliminate now, later got problem when multiply

[blacknails]

wait and see... they dun multiply immediately...

Ermm... Actually no... Don't wait and see!! Get rid of it now or else when it really does multiply then things would very likely get pretty screwy....

Go read up on these pest anemones and destroy it as recommended.. Even if it isn't what we think it is, I personally wouldn't take the chance.... Good luck, dude....

[lightningstrike]

think should be aptasia. get rid of it.

[gtrigger]

Ok guys... will remove it.

[Achilles Tang]

It's spelt as Aiptasia.

There are a few ways to get rid of it.

Do a search on Aiptasia in SRC.... its been discussed before.

[reeflobang]

Get a small stringe with a tiny needle and inject concentrate Kalk solution into it... but must be fast as they shrink into a ball really fast.. cruel but it works......

[flubberina13]

Copperband butterfly(must be at least three inch type) and peppermint shrimps help too...

But for the latter, dun just buy it for the sake of aiptasia though they are cheaper than the shrimps unless you wanna keep it in your tank...
