Aiptasia from outta the blue

[Anonymous]

I took a piece of LR outta my main tank and put it in my 5.5gal mantis tank...a week later i noticed what appears to be aiptasia...my main tank is a year and a half old and that piece of LR is now where near recent...Is this possible..I keep a pep shrimp in my main tank ive never had aiptasia...

It happens, although rarely. Sometimes you have a tiny one that you don't even notice it was there all the time. This is one of the thing about reef tank that keeps me "entertained" in a way, you know.

It happens brutha.

I discovered aptasia on LR that had been in my tank for 3 years and never even noticed it once before then....

LN, its me puff by the way, had to go into stealth mode because I didn't want to draw attention to my previous nick at work where I do armed security....

Im not sure what im gonna use to get rid of it..maybe (doubtfully) with any luck they wont spread...its in my mantis tank....if i have to, ill use maybe a kalk paste or joe's juice...Mantises have been known to eat anemones so who knows, maybe he'll eat?

 

[anyportstorm]

can i pull the pieces of LR out of the tank and try to kill with kalk? or do they retract making it a waste of time

It will probably be easier if you Kalk in tank then mess with it outta tank
