Got New coral with my LR

Can you help me ID these please.











Thanks in advance for help

 

I can see there are some colony yellow polpys

 

I see
Aiptasia
yellow polyps
green/blue shroom
encrusting monti

and the last one, I have no idea

ouch; aiptasia really sucks. I have heard of a method to get rid of it: take the LR out and BURN IT'S @$$!! XD or you could use something like aiptasia X lol

 

Any special care on any of these light, flow and food wise thank you for the ID everyone on here is always a great help. Also acclimation time on mushroom and monti?

 

The last is a type of coralline algae. It is soft and will be removed by crabs and chitons.

Steve is spot on with the rest. I believe that is a Discosoma species mushroom.

 

Aiptasia just read up on it no good maybe i can remove it now? Or can i get rid of it before it spreads?

 

You need to kill with a commercial aiptasia killer or inject it with boiling water, lemon juice or kalk paste. The paste can be injected in a more liquid form or used to bury it in a thicker form.

 

I would deal with it sooner rather than later
they can be funny, in that you can have one for ages or the one becomes half a dozen very soon (I have experienced both scenarios in different set ups)

Polyps like medium light and medium flow, the mushroom likes low light and low flow. The monti likes medium to high light and high flow.
