Is this Aiptasia?

[Jman76]

I believe this is Aiptasia, just need to confirm. Thought I was lucky, but nope I found 2. If so, looks like F-aptasia product works excellent? Would consider a pep shrimp, but no room in the nano. Thanks! Forgive the epoxy job lol

 

[Hemmdog]

Yep it is. Haven’t tried that product but I’ve heard good things.

 

[Jman76]

Thanks man. Gonna give it a shot asap. That thing is in a crazy tight space!

Can you post a pic with more white light on?

 

[Jman76]

Sure, is this better? The blob is my failed epoxy plug

 

[rkpetersen]

Yes Aiptasia. Joe's Juice is another product I've found to work well (if used properly.)
Pumps off, gently feed some to the anemone and make sure it takes it into its mouth.

Ive used RedSea aptasia X with success but people have good results with F-Aptasia as well. Like RK said flow off and move slowly to the mouth with the syringe, I usually inject a little until it starts to close around the syringe, then give it a bit more. Works good.

Can you remove the rock?

There is also a Aptasia eating nudibranch... can't remember the name right now.

 

[Peace River]

Yes, @Frank's Tanks F-Aiptasia Killer is the stuff to use!

 

[sfin52]

if you can pull the rock super glue it. Easiest and cheapest if possible

I had one that showed up in my DT, pulled the rock out and broke out the blow torch.

Noooo do the peppermint! I have one in my tank and zero aiptasia. Those products MAY cause them to spread... at least that’s what I’ve heard.

 

[Jman76]

Ha! Thanks for the replies. I'm all about drastic measures like a blow torch. Unfortunately, all rock is glued. It's a narrow nano so pretty tight spaces.

Wish I had the room! Sometimes I question my decision to put a fire shrimp in there! Love it, but it's like a bull in a china shop lol

 

[Ebslinger]

Berghia Nudibranch might be your answer. Depending on your wrasse situation of course.

Peppermint shrimp can be a great option, however F-Aiptasia Killer will not cause the Aiptasia to spread like many other solutions will.

Well I hope so. I’ll admit I know nothing about that product but have heard enough about others.
