Hello all,

I just picked up a flowerpot frag and didn't know this guy tagged along. I have the frag in the container from LFS, thankfully saw this guy before I was ready to dip the frag. is this Aiptasia? if yes, any suggestions on what can be done?
Here's the link to a small video of the same ()

Feather duster. A harmless filterfeeding tube worm.

I couldn't me more happier to hear this, I was dreading someone would say Aiptasia.

Lol. Right?


Fwiw it good you looked close before putting it in the tank. I let mine rest in a dish too.
If you do see an aptasia that way, just use aptasia x or just use a razor to scrape the lil menace right off the rock.

Here's my to be or not to be, dilemma. I was about to dip that frag in coral-rx-pro; if the feather duster is harmless, I wouldn't mind keeping him. will the dip kill him?

 

[saltyfilmfolks]

No. It'll probably live.
