Got A Nice Rock The Other Day

[jen20147]

We went to one of our lfs the other day and saw this rock which we purchased for $45 US dollars. Got a great deal for everything living on it...2 different types of xenia, 2 richordia, what we think is a kenya tree, some sort of button poylp and what looks to be a couple star polyps on the back part of the rock.

Thanks guys. We have 2 specialty LFS stores around here with typical prices, but one guy who has a small pet store with a small section for saltwater in the back. He seems pretty knowledgable about it and has really excellent prices. We got our elegant coral from him for only $50! He gets some pretty cool fish in also. Right now he has 2 Moorish Idols. Too bad they are coral chompers!

That button polyp looks like a Majano Anemone. Zap it before it moves. Nice find though! Very good quality and a great price!

I took some more pics of it just now and ill post them up later today so we can try to get a positive ID on it. We allready need to pick up some Joes Juice beacuse of a couple Aiptasias...so if this is the dreaded majano, then its going down!!

Here is a pic of what we believe to be the button poloyp and you guys to be the anemone.

What'd ya think now?

Id say zap it! JJ works fine with Majaon IME, with Aiptasia ive got mixed results.

Good to hear! The dam things move all the time too. Majanos have a really fast movment, and they serisouly move to a whole new location overnight sometimes!
