Hi,

Bought a frag the other day and noticed this in a hole and wondered what it is and if I should remove it. Hard to get a good photo as it is quite small.


Thanks for any advice.

Looks very much like Aiptasia to me

Whats the best way of removing it?

seffie has a grudge against these thing she should be along shortly

imo there should stuff at the LFS to deal with it

Natural method True Peppermint shrimp

Chemical method Aiptasia X

Peppermint shrimp would be my first port of call

If it is small, peppermints might do the trick but for me you cant beat the smell of burning aiptasia - fry the monsters - get a kitchen blow torch or a soldering iron and burn em I like soldering irons the best as you can stick it in their hole
