Wade Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 This is very small. Maybe a 1/2" in diameter. When I pull back you can see the zoa plug above it for reference. Any idea what it is? IMG_0452.MOV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb in Austin Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Very difficult to ID correctly based on that. But. I'd say a majano and you should kill it with fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire doesn't work in water. Duh! True. One can remove the rock though. Or use a laser(not fire), maybe aiptasia x, the ARC Aiptasia zapper(not sure if it will work or who has it) or your head to smash it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 I've not added anything in months. That's crazy. Where does this stuff come from. Well, removing the rock is out because it's on the bottom of my aquascaping. I guess I'll need eradicate by other means. Does Aiptasia X work or am I better off trying to find a zapper?

Robb in Austin Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Try to get a better picture before we fully authorize a deadly strike. We want to be sure we are taking out the terrorists and not some friendly natives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 This is the best picture I could get. I took several and it just won't come out any clearer. Ignore the blue tint to everything, it appears whitish and the ends look like little balls or tiny pom poms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share Posted September 22, 2013 Forgot to attach picture. The ends also appear to have tiny holes in the center, but I could be mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timfish Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I'm voting mojano also but I'm guessing more on the appereance of the tenticles, it could be something else. If you have a BML super actinic the foot will glow green under the UV leds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb in Austin Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 If you have a nice strong flashlight, shine it at it and take a pic. But, like Tim, I'm basing my ID on the tentacle shape more than anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 So assuming it is a mojano, why are they bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robb in Austin Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 They will take over and kill everything else you wanted to keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 ok, well that's pretty bad I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wade Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share Posted September 23, 2013 I've got some stuff called Joes Juice that a got a couple of years ago to kill an aiptasia. Says it works on mojano too. Anyone know anything about it? i remember it worked well on the aiptasia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esacjack Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 someone else had what they thought was a majano at one point, it turned out to be a frogspawn! so be gentle.. maybe QT it till it grows a bit bigger? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sascha D. Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 I've killed them in the past by injecting them with Ich medicine. using an insulin needle. I've also injected them with hot water (don't burn yourself) and super salty water. Good Luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
