white "hairs" on walls of tank

[fleek]

Hi all experts,

I just found that in my tank there are a lot of white "hairs" and I also found several Asterinas. Is this a good sign?

What white hair.. Got a photo.. Like that very vague a lot of possibility... Asterinas are considered pests, they will feed on zoas if not wrong...

Plan to do it this weekend with some water change as well. Could it be discharge from my white Anemone who is going to die soon?

[JizzHut]

i think it should be the discharge of the anemone but its not dying. your anemone look like melting? if so, then its dying.

[JizzHut]

my anemone died after i keep shifting my LR.

and 2nd picture is the sticky thing from it which is normal.

Please correct me if i'm wrong cause im also having it.

It is just detritus trapped by small algae growth... Just wipe it off... nothing serious... If it is the dying anemone den throw the anemone away...

Jizzhut, That anemone is a magnifica anemone, not the easiest anemone around, it is very light demanding and very sensitive.. I only have success with them once only... The rest will melt away.. And your doesnt look good.. You can prepare to throw it away liao..

most asterina stars are good cleaners, only a small portion of its class are considered harmful. so its depends on which are you having.

Bubbletip is much more hardy but they are very mobile untill they found the right spot...

Faster throw ur anemone away, once it start to rot, ur water will be smelly and ur water condition will be ko, may need to water change. I kana before, better throw it fast.
