coral id

heres one

 

and another

 

frogspawn

 

its not frog spawn it looks like a zoo or something it keeps splittting i hive them in two spots in my tank

 

does not look like any kind of zoa I have seen before. perhaps a mojano?

 

That was my first guess when I saw the pics...

 

Definitely looks like an anemone of some sort, especially when you say they've been splitting. Doesn't look like a tulip anemone, I should know, lol /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/wink.gif Where'd it come from? How big are they? How are they attached to the rock?  Looks like green bta or something similar.

 

they stay very small if thay are manjos how s the easiest way to get rid of them

 

They are Majanos. The usually are golf ball size at the very biggest. Usually more quarter size.

Goto your local farm storm, theisens, or similar & buy a package of syringes. Should only be about $5.

Mix up a slurry of kalkwasser & inject into the mouth of each one.

They are really pretty & cool, but will wipe out your corals. If a person has a fish only tank, they would be perfect.

 

Yeah, if they're that small and have the red tips on the ends (hard to tell from your photos), they are majano's or tulip anemones. They will sting whatever they grow next to and can really spread quickly if you don't kill them. Just do what xroads said, turn off your powerheads for a bit, load 'em up with your paste and let those suckers die /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/biggrin.gif

 

thanks took the rock out and ran them under some hot water and pick them off with a razor blade thanks for the help

 

I never want to see or hear about Majanos ever again. Im about to break down my 75G completely because of them. Defenetely take care of them while theres only a few. If you catch em in time and dry out the rock or peel them off with a blade than your fine, but if you let them take over then your tanks done. Keep an eye on it for a while just in case though. Glad you posted about it before its too late!

 

Don't be surprised if you find more.
