I have a bunch of these sprouting up all over. They look like anemones but I don't know what kind. Does anyone know? They are all green with red tips. And how do I control their population explosion?
 
Could be majanos based on the description. Got a pic?

If it is a pest anemone (like the majano), you can use kalwasser mixed to a paste or Aiptasia X to kill them. You'll need a syringe with a small tip to squirt the mix right into their mouths.

Get some peppermint shrimp to take care of them.

Peppermint shrimp are hit and miss. Better off with the kalk/lemon juice/aiptasia x in my opinion.

Aiptasia-x works great, and you get quite a bit in each bottle, so it helps with any other little ones that might pop up. And plus, I don't know if peppermints help majanos anyways. I know they help with small aiptasia, but not sure on majano
