Is this aiptasia?

Thank goodness that's a pic of their and and not yours then.

Are you shopping over around Lancaster cosmo?That guy will sell them to you as polyps and give instuctions on how to feed them

HAHA, now that's funny

 

I don't think I have been in any stores that did not have at least a few. Granted, the staff should know what they are but I would not write the place off completely. I would just be especially careful of any purchases and dip anything you can. Shipping fish puts a tremendous amount of stress on them compared to local pick-up. Plus, you have no idea what the thing looks like until you get it.

 

You have got to be kidding me! a LFS sells aiptasia and he's still in business? Some of these were big enough to sell! I politely told the kid who thought they looked cool to have his manager do a search on aiptasia and that they may want to eliminate the problem if they want sales!

But no, lancaster is about 2 hours from me! I only have room left in my tank for 1 more fish! i'll just order from Liveaquaria!

 

if it were a few, i'd agree, but these things are everywhere, and they have alot of rockwork in there tanks! Stuff would be stirred up everywhere!
