Is this aptasia?

[Blitz06]

Is this an aptasia in between my clove polyps and if so what’s the best way to get rid of just one? There also seems to be some tiny feather dusters as well

Hard to tell. Got a brighter light by chance?

That’s as close as i can get. Hopefully that’s clear enough but it’s directly in the center of those polyps

Yeah that is aptasia. I have a frag with one aptasia as well. I don’t touch it. Messing with it might cause it to spread. If you want to get rid of it some aptasia X works. Spray directly in mouth to kill it just be careful with coral.

Thanks a lot for the quick reply. Yeah I was just going to leave it alone for now I assume they’re going to be in the tank regardless and the coral doesn’t seem to be getting irritated.

If it gets out of control that’s when I would take action. I have one on my clam for like 6 months and it hasn’t spread yet.

I would get a bottle of aiptasia-x and be ready just in case it begins to spread
