I have this in my journal post but as I know that some people don't necessarily read through these long threads I thought I'd give it a go as a seperate id thread, hope you don't mind!
Could anyone confirm if these little guys are Aptasia please? They have been in the tank for about 3 or 4 weeks, started off as one stalk and now there are three. They are very small and the largest is only around 10mm high.
I was convinced that they were aptasia but when I saw some in an LFS and it looked totally different. They were a sort of translucent colour and not the brown that you see here. It does, however, dissappear if you touch it.
My net research so far has not thrown up an Aptasia that looks like this so I'm now hoping it is a goodie and not a baddie.
If it is Aptasia, because it is so small and I would think too small to inject anything into it (the stalk is only about the width of a needle) would I have to wait for it to grow before getting rid of it or use the milliput option? I don't really want bits of milliput all over the tank though!
I really don't want to have to take the rock out of the tank though as it is one of the bottom bits and would mean I would have to dismantle the whole tank!

Maybe brown xenia. But dont quote me on that. Best check back when its more established
