New LR (w/ critters)!

[willyboy]

I got my Live rock yesterday and all the critters are comming out! I have seen two asterina stars, some tunicates/sea squirts (too small for picture), and unfortunately about a half dozen aiptasia.

I've had a few of those... filter feeders.

Number one I would need a picture of the shell side but it looks like a chiton to me. Harmless/great algae grazer. I'd agree with your starfish, and last photo is a turkey wing clam. They are super hardy.

Picture two you are correct. I have many of them.

I am getting little aiptasia on every rock. They're too small to get off I don't want to take every single rock out to get them. Is there anything that will eat aiptasia and survive the cycle cuase I think they will be EVERYWHERE if I wait till after the cycle. Last night with my moon lights I caught a glimpse of two searpent stars I think. I have also seen more asterina stars.

Ever heard of Joes' Juice for aptasia? Supposedly works fine, unless they're too small to inject I'd guess.

 

[willyboy]

They are to small. What do I need to inject them with joes juice or any other liquid. Where can I get these things.
