What is this on my coral!?!?!?

[VCreamer87]

The tiny zenia I received in the mail from world wide coral out of Florida and then the second coral with the same type of thing growing out of it I got from a fish store around my home i dipped both corals before going in the display and the zenia I even later dipped again after I noticed it but nothing seems to effect it the dip I used was coral rx pro. I just ordered brightwell lugol dip to see if that does any good. Any help identifying this would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance.

Kind of hard to tell from the heavy blues but looks to me like aptasia. I would stop the dipping as I’m not sure if that’s any good to do it back to back like that. But get like f aptasia or some other kind up to you and I would just apply the paste over it. You can even use super glue. And that’ll do the trick.

I agree. Looks like aiptasia. There are some fish and I believe shrimp that supposedly eat these guys. There are plenty of threads on here about that.
