No they are njot eggs, that is a pic of a peppermint shrimp, known aiptasia eater

I have one of them in my tank.. So I was right about these being Aiptasia.. I believe I have heard of you injecting them with lemon juice is that right RR?? If so I will start injecting them on Monday

Well I found the old post about you using lemon juice and I injected them PITA things.. I hope i got them good enough.. I kinda thought they were Aiptasia but was unsure and didnt want to nuke anything without knowing for sure..

Anyways thanks guys.. And hopefully the lemon juice works well..

I am soooo Glad, I have not seen one of those in my Tank yet! But Good Luck!

The Lemon Juice Seems to have killed all but one of them.. Besides the really small ones.. My local Pharmacy was nice enough to give me a few needles to assist in my adventure.. I am gonna wait for the small ones to get bigger and nuke them as well..

TIA,

I inject kalk kalk into them in my tank. I fill a hypo with a thick kalk mix and place a couple of drops right into its mouth. It will then close up around it and retract into the rock, never to be seen again.
