in ur zoas pic there seem to be some pest majanos anemones.. they are PEST... :nuke: them!!!!

Further reading...

Majano Anemone

These are a fairly small scientifically undescribed anemone species, possibly Anemonia species that bear a superficial resemblance to the Bubble tip anemone, Entacmaea quadricolor. It’s an attractive small anemone possessing fluorescent green tentacles, unfortunately if it gets out of control it can be almost as destructive as the more familiar Aiptasia species pest anemone.

dun mind having a small frag of xenia... (now where can i place them??)

The photos are taken with no light on.

I have just switch on the light and wow, it looks different from yesterday.

The blue is stronger now. you can definitely tell it is light shade of blue and not green.

I think they are acclimatised to the lighting now.

But the red is not as intense as Peter's photo.

Peters photos are much much more rich.

Do not seem to be multiplying. one of them did grew a little bigger, the other 2 stayed the same.

Maybe once if one split, I will remove them

I also have 1 aiptasia on my clam. right at the shell opening.

Leaving it there for the time being.

Dun wanna disturb the clam.

Let them acclimatise a couple of days more and with feeding of zooplankton, copepods or rotifiers, they should colour up a bit more.

I think it could puff up a little bit more... :eyebrow:

Use your sea squirt to feed some zooplankton/copepods to them later tonight when lights are off and their feeding tentacles are out. You should see them bloat a bit more after they are fed... :upsidedown:

Your yuma could probably feed on mysis or brine shrimps. Feeding them with frozen food will help in their colouration. :eyebrow:

Will try tonight to see if the blastos can feed on frozen brine shrimps. :whistle
