Hi all,
We have this "growth" in our tank, all over a few of our LR. We have had a few large aiptasia, which our peppermint shrimp had taken care off. However, we haven't seen the shrimp for a few weeks now... MIA... (We have a mantis shrimp we haven't been able to get rid of, and I suspect he's fallen victim).
This "stuff" is much smaller than the aiptasia we had previously, hopefully you can see by the attached pic. They stand about 4mm high (0.15in). Its a reddy-brown colour, with a stem and little branches. Its almost like a carpet?
We have 3 tangs and a flame angel in the tank, and they aren't going near it when they pick on the rocks. We also have a clown and 4 chromis.
What do you guys think it is?
If it is aiptasia, what are some methods you've used to get rid of it?
Thanks a lot for your help!
