ysanford Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I just set up our 55g tonight. Got the live rock in and all of the hardware set up. Turned on the lights to see what was happening and to marvel at it's glory. My moment was destroyed by a encounter with about 10 Aiptasia. Luckily I just purchased a vial of Aiptasia control. With weapon in hand I went to work. 10 down 1 I am not sure about it doesn't look like the others. It is stark white with a neon green center. The body looks the same but the coloring is off. Is this the pesky Aiptasia or perhaps a mutation of it's counter part Majono. I tried to get picks of it but my shiaty 4 MP coolpix digicam couldn't get it. So my poetic description will have to do until I can get my other camera. Just wondering if anyone has seen any varmints fitting this description? KILL it or let it LIVE?

ysanford Posted February 8, 2009 Author Share Posted February 8, 2009 That is a shame it does look cool. I haven't been able to find anything similar on the web. I might risk it and see what it turns into. I will probably take cpt obviouses advise and move it to my qt tank to see what it does. I hope it turns to something beneficial doubt it though.

GKarshens Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 I say kill it. I had the Majano infestation and you DO NOT want it. It is not worth the chance in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
