Help on I.D. of anenome?

Get yourself a small army of peppermint shrimp, maybe 5 or so. They will eat it right up. Don't use chemicals.

 

Peppermint shrimp do not eat majano anemones.

 

At least half the time they won't eat aiptasia either for that matter At least for me. I hate those little shrimp...

 

I hear you. Only thing that I have ever found that kills majano anemones is a special paste that Roger mixes up. And I tried just about everything when I had them. Shrimp, copperband butterfly, hot water, lemon juice, Joe's Juice. None of it worked for me.

 

well great....if the hot water idea & a syringe doesnt work idk what I wanna try cause i've had peppermint shrimp and that didnt work but I have had a copperband butterfly before and it worked wonders on controlling aiptasia but I guess it is different in every tank.

 

My peppermint shrimp take very good care of the aptasia.. that is definately a majano though.

 

I use kalk paste (pickling lime mixed with tank water ins a thick paste) injected with a syringe.

It does the trick very well, and the nice part is that is only adds calcium to your tank. Just don't nuke more than a few at a time, unless you have a big tank.

I have yet to see a copperband butterfly eat majenos.
