ok so i have to unidentified objects in my tank. the first is kind of cool looking but might be bad. i dont know! it looks like an anemone but the body is a pink color and the tentacles are green with a fat bubble tip like end on them? does not look like my tulip anemones. any ideas? mark it came in your halimeda. at least that is where it is at. the second are little white things on my glass. they move rather quickly and look like they have legs. they dont move like a worm per-say. any ideas? i was thinkin flatworms but have no idea. my chromis ate one though so that was cool to watch. i would show pics but you couold never see either thing.
im pretty sure it is not a tulip anemone and if it is ill just kalk it but this thing is pretty i like it. it looks like one of my mushrooms but with longer tentacles on it.
are they really copepods mark? they are tiny bugs that hang out in the algae and can move very quickly. is this anemone/thing anything to worry about. this thing is pinkish magenta in the middle and has green tips.
ok so i found some pictures on google of a majano anemone and that is not it. this thing is flourescent and good looking. maybe you need to come down mark. i need help figuring out where that darn torch coral can go in my tank now.
Tulip anemones are in the class of Majano Anemones, those that most people consider pests. When Majano look pretty we don't consider them such a pest.
...for the first little while. I thought I had a couple beautiful Tulip Anemones. Now I have tons of beautiful tulip anemonies that I can't kill and lost 2 colonies of zoanthids to them so far.
I for one hate these things.
Does anyone have a surefire way to get rid of them. I'm really considering trying a Kliens butterfly.
have you used kalk on them. my tulip anemones didnt stand a chance! yes they are copepods on my glass mark. most seemed to be gone this morning. i took antoher look and there are 4 of these anemones in the halimeda. they can stay there but if they venture they are dead! mu ha ha ha!
