Somethings in my zooanthids

Anyone know what these are? There used to only be one so I nipped it off a bit but it doesn't appear to have slowed it down at all.

 

I have those. They come out at night. I haven't been worried about them.

 

looks like it may be a macro algae of some type,does it move,like an animal,or is it just growing?

 

It's growing more like macro. They never extend and retract they just grow like fingers and are somewhat stiff. They look slightly clear/green so i'm thinking it's either photosynthetic or it's growing algae on it.

 

If those zoo's are on a plug/rock. I'd take it out and scrub/scrape the area real good. Using a little tank water to rinse it off before putting it back in. That's it.

Right on it'll go under the knife when I get off today. Thanks guys.

 

Be careful with those zoos if your handling them

 

I used my teeth should I have used something else?

 

I'm assuming that you're joking. Mucus membranes (lips, gums, eyes, nasal tissue) are real efficient at delivering drugs right into your bloodstream. For those that are wondering why this matters, Palytoxin is fairly dangerous. Steamed Palythoas send well-informed aquarist to the emergency room, nearly to the grave
