Identifying this anenome

I couldnt find an anenome forum so I posted it here. Well I think its an anenome anyways but w3hat kind of anenome is it. I have two big ones and a bunch of little ones have sprouted everywhere. In total there are 10. Are these good for my tank. I sometimes hand feed it brine shrimp. As soon as it touches it the tentacles bring it in to the middle Im guessng that mis where the mouth is.

 

wow thats a HUGE aiptasia. they are not good. make yourself some kalk paste or get some joes juice and get rid of them.

 

oh, and stop feeding them. lol its cool to see knew life huh?

 

ha ha ha... I saw this and had to laugh.. sorry!

Dude aptasia is not a "keeper" and you hand fed them... lol sorry it's funny. I have a buzz from this wine and that was funny.. lol.

Listen to Annie... calc and lemon juice and shoot'm now before they over populate your tank. They sting anything they touch and grow like weeds. You'll need a 18-21 guage hypodermic needle that can be purchased at your local pharmacy like Walgreens, CVS or maybe even Walmart for under a buck.

Good Luck!!

 

look up aptasia ( i think some call it mojano ). if you have alot in the tank you may want to throw in a peppermint shrimp or two (depending on how big your tank is).

 

LOL, I know what you mean, even with out the wine..

I remember the first time I found one in my tank...
WOW !! A baby anenome ... And it was free..

Mine came in on a frag of coral.. I would have fed it, if I knew what it ate...
Get rid of them ASAP, I've heard they can take over a tank, and sting your other corals, etc..

Good Luck, Larry

 

Thanks forthe advice. will do asap. I didnt know threse were bad for the tank. Forget the lemon juice Im going to rip them off.

 

Be careful ripping them off... may cause them to spread even worse.
I remember as well my first aptasia.. I was like "cool!" lol...
Then i read about it stinging coral... made a trip that night for some peppermint shrimp..

 

yeah id say do not rip them off, they will spread like crazy if you rip them off. Cause thats what i did!

 

NOOOO!!!! It will spread. Nail them with Joe's Juice. I just mixed some Kalkwasser in water, put it into a small container and injected it into their little demon mouths.
