I posted this one a while back, never got a definite answer. It is bigger now, and there is another one. Please help! Is it good or bad? First picture is as it is open. Second picture is after I poked it.

Looks like a Protopalythoa to me.
Well, good. I hope it recovers in the light. But, as long as it's not a bad guy, I am fine with it.
I have had my first bout with aiptasia tonight. So, I am extra paranoid.

I got some peppermint shrimp...they are great for controlling aiptasia...I got tired of spot feeding Joes juice..I always missed some aiptasia so it kept coming back, and that stuff isn't cheap. The shrimp cost me $8.33 each, I purchased 3 for my 90g....Aiptasia X cost me $17.00 for a tiny bottle...when the bottle was empty I still had aiptasia.
Now when I see aiptasia...I look again in a few hours and it is magically gone...I never see the shrimp, they hide in the rocks. As long as I don't see aiptasia..Life is good!

YIKES...Flower...the peppermint shrimp on this site are 5 for $19.99
$8.33 is pretty high IMO
or if you are a reef customer you can get them a free gift
