What is this?

[pcinmd]

Just wondering what this is and is it a bad thing.

This Is A Rock Or Glass Anenomae, They Are Bad In A Reef, They Can Sting Your Coral Causing Problems For Them Or Any Small Creature Who Comes Across It. The Easy Way To Get Rid Of Them Is To Put A Couple Peppermint Shrimp In, Or If You Want To Add A Fish, A Copperbanded Butterfly Will Also Munch Them Up And It Is A Beautiful Fish. There Is Also Treatments To Inject Into Them To Kill Them, Do Not Cut Them Out Though!!!! They Will Spread Like Wild Fire!!!
Hope This Helps!!!
Good Luck

I believe peppermint shrimp eating aiptasia to be an urban legend!!!

I've heard of joes juice in past treads What exactly is it? :thinking:

Joes Juice can be sketchy sometimes......try Kalkwasser mixed with some RO water if Joes Juice doesn't work for you--that's all joes juice is anyway.

I make a kalk paste and then mix some kent licquid reactor in with it just enough so I can suck it up in the needle and whack 'em in the mouth.
