I have a confusing predicament?

[xan]

Hi guys, I have an odd predicament that I must ask you about. About 2 weeks ago I got a piece of LR with some Leather coral on it, the coral is doing fine, except one has like a majano or some type of zoo imbedded and growing on one of the leathers! They are about an inch or two high and seem to be doing good, what should I do about this small imbedded creature? How can I remove it w/o hurting the coral?

Is this actually growing on the leather or on the rock? If it's actually on the leather, a picture is neccessary for an ID.

yeah its actually on the leather which I find odd :notsure: . Hmm I'll try to post a pic, lemme get one for ya bigarn

here it is:

the brown spot is the majano anem, or some sort of zoo, it closes like a zoo, but it looks like a majano

That's weird .... can you focus in on it? I doubt it's a zoo. :thinking:

I tried to, but it keeps coming out blurry :notsure: . I keep thinking its my hand shaking or something but I have others in my tank, maybe I can shoot one of those? Its a brown thing that has little tentacles and a lime green center in it, but it doesn't look like it'd be a zoo

Looks like it may be a palythoa (sp.?) They are easy spreaders and attach to most anything. Carrie
