Should I be concerned about this tentacle looking thing?

[Mitej04]

I don’t know what should I do about these

Aiptasia. Throw it out. Get rid of any others in your tank before it becomes an infestation.

Get that plug and anything else that is not glued down that has aptasia on it and remove it from the tank.

Peppermint shrimp will eat them. As well as some fish.

People actually buy them to feed things tho. But frag plugs completely covered is out of hand.

Got a LFS near me that is infested with them. They even sell them as "common anemone" Not gonna lie when I first started me first tank, i bought some live rock from them. Not knowing about the aptaisas. Now I'm f@#$ed

Both fish and shrimp are said to eat them , most will not completely eradicate the system of them and only pick at them .

guaranteed if you can find nudibranch that eats them ( forget the name )

I have also used kalk paste years ago with great success

 

[Rmckoy]

I would not buy frags from that lfs until they get the infestation under control .
