Aiptasia? Pls Help

[Michaelbknudsen]

Please help with this... Cloud I just pull it off? It's the only one in my tank, and would like to handle it ASAP if it is a bad growth. Suggestions are very, very welcome!

Aiptasia X is a great product. Your LFS should have it if they do saltwater.

Oh forgot to mention. If you can take the rock out you can burn it with a lighter.

So it is?

Oh I'm sorry. I thought you knew for sure and were asking how to get rid of it. My bad... I can't really tell form the pic. Google pictures of it and let me know what you think.

Yeah, looks like it. I think I'll pick up some aiptasia x. Is there a chance it could die off whole the tank is cycling, or should I just zap it?

Pulled the rock out and burnt the sucker, then put a drop of superglue over the hole. I noticed some smaller ones after I put it back, so today I zapped them with vinegar. They seemed to shrivel right up!!! I'll keep the vinegar ready to go though if I need!

Yeah, keep the vinegar handy because it's unlikely that this will be the last Aptasia you find.
