Aiptasia

[francisco5]

Hello everyone. I have just puschased a small zoo colony, and I believe that there are two aiptasia on the peice of rock that the colony came on. My question is can I just remove these off the rock? Also i have not put the rock in my tank yet. Thanks for your time and advice

a peppermint shrimp will take them off, or boiling water, joes juice...im not sure you can just pick them off, i think theyll grow back...also there is a supposed nudi branch that i just saw...the online store claimed it ate aiptasia

My peppermints have never touched my aip. The only thing I have had luck with is joe's juice. Don't pull it off, this will cause it to spread!

yeah, I think it's peppermints that come from certain waters or something like that... :joy:

One drop of lemon juice injected by syringe near the base will kill it. One drop only.
That's how I killed GODZILLA:

Did you use fresh juice from a lemon or canned juice?

Will the lemon juice hurt my other corals and anemeone?
