I love saltwater tanks! Everything comes to life literally! Is this an anemone?

 

[Nu-Nu the eel]

Yes it is. It looks like apista and it is bad, will kill other corals

Peppermint shrimp will take care of it quickly. I had the same problem. At least 6 aiptasias showed up on my live rocks. 48 hours after introducing couple of peppermint shrimps aiptasia is GONE!

Aiptasia-X works really well too, and is reasonably priced and the bottle will last quite a while.

Thank you all for your knowledge! Saltwater forum is so much better here than the freshwater one!! I have a peppermint shrimp and a coral frag in there right now and that's all... I have been cycling for about 2 months now... Just letting everything live and grow!

I have read that peppermint shrimp really only hunt aiptasia when theyre in groups. From what I understand, one peppermint shrimp won't really do much against aiptasia.

Mine did best in a group of 3. But this could be false, it's just wat I've read online

Just boil lemon juice and squirt it into his mouth. Should work!!!!
