Something growing under my Zoas

[Nick_N]

Any idea what those tentacle looking things might be? They're kind of coming out from behind the Zoa frag and I'm pretty sure they're getting longer.

Also can someone confirm that that's Aiptasia next to it?

Thanks!

The second picture shows definitely an aiptasia. The long things I am not sure, it look like a macroalgae I have seen growing on some LR in my LFS.

+1 aiptasia.

I have one baby Aptasia growing exactly under my zoa frag. It is so freakin elusive. I have tried pulling it out of with a tweezer to no success. I then used lime juice in a syringe shooting it on the spot. It went away for about 5 days and then pop up again (unsure if it’s the same one or it died and left a seed). I just squirt it again yesterday. Going to observe and see what happen the next few days. I should seal that spot with coral gel after the lime juice.
