Do I need to get rid of the rock? There's so much life on that one small piece of rock that I really don't want to toss it. I don't have kalkwasser.

Search up how to make kalk paste, its easy to make and inexpensive and does a good job of killing them. Just do it ASAP!
IMO you should take the rock out and put it in a small tank or anything filled with tank water until you have eradicated the aiptasia with kalk paste and then put it back into your tank.

that look more like mojano to me any way they say that they r pest too like aptasia so i would get it out before they take over ur tank

Hi NL 146 and Happy new year

Have a look here: aipstia outbreak (

1 2 3 ... Last Page)
You will find useful information about possibilities to eliminate Aipatasia anemones.
If you use Kalk or Vinegar, be careful with the amount used as it may unbalance your water parameters and avoid spilling on neighbour corals, so disconnecting the pumps while performing the "treatment" and wait some 10 mins after it its done before reconnecting the pumps again, is a good and advisable action.
If possible it is safer to "treat" the rocks out of the tank and for that you can find detailed information on how to do it in the link above.

Cheers
