I've recently got some LR from a reefer, after running for few days in the tank I noticed that there were handful of this thingy look exactly like anemone (pink tip) the size of the tip of finger pinky on the LRs, not one of it but at least got total of 5 of it on 3 pcs of LRs...has any bro encounter this before?? What exactly is it?

My concern is what if they were to die in the tank then polute the water...shld I pick it out (what a waste). any advice?? :blink::o

My DC is lousy type, cant actually do a macro shot... :(

They are known as Anemonia or Majano, they are similiar to the Aiptasia except that they are more colourful and the green tentacles will fluoresce until actinic lights.

But due to the fact that they moves alot to the irritation and demise of corals some reefers prefer to remove them! ;)

Thks Gouldian,

So they are just some harmless inverts? will they grow bigger?

AS time goes by, they'll grow... If you dun like them, juz squirt them using kalk paste and a syringe... but I suggest u do it one by one and now all at the same time... :P

I had some previously with no problems... They dun move around much ( in my case )

:)

People do not plan to fail; Often they just fail to plan...

Wat I do to prevent myself from tearing my hair out... My stress remedy...
