Whats is this?

[islandcreation]

They were with my polyps and decided to mutiply? Their pretty cool and get pretty big... Thier the green things with my polyps, they remind me of a palythoa cause I can feed them mysis shrimp! I like them but just wanted to know what they were.

Look like tulip anemones to me, careful with feeding them due to them spreading fast.

I agree, these are a pest anemone that can spread and sting corals if you aren't careful.

Those are called Mojano anenomes and are as bad as aiptasia....Kill them with joe's juice before they take over

i also have them in my tank. love those little guys. what i did was, got them to spread to a small piece of LR and placed it to where they would havea hard time transfering to another rock. its worked great so far. oh yeah and i juiced the ones that where on my corals and the ones that manage to stray off. HTH

Mojano Anemone i say nuke them... :lol: and dont worry using joe's juice close to the zoas cause they wont get hurt i do it all the time to kill aptasias and sometimes in the middle of a colony and no side effects at all..

P.S: They look nice and they're being colected by someone Brandon so if you can ... you can always frag them and ship them to him he'll love that for sure ;-)

NUKE THEM NOW - NUKE THEM FAST!

I just tore down my entire tank. I killed off the live rock - literally everything that was living in or on it is now dead. Didn't want to, but didn't have a choice. All my corals were snapped off and given away. Zoos went into the sump as they are contaminated. The rock has been dried out, soaked in fw, soaked in vinegar and fw, rinsed, dried out and is now soaking in fw.

Until I get all the tulips out of the tank (off the sand bed, pumps, returns), then nothing is going back in.

Oh, btw - you can't isolate them. They detach and retach as they see fit. They will attach anywhere and everywhere. Some are so small, you don't even see them.

Nuke them. End of story.

No offense to you killers out there.. ;-)
