Hey everyone. Is that aiptasia growing at the base of my Acan?

Yes it probably is, I find these a fair bit on coral frags, in the past i have broken the bit of rock the coral is on off for the aiptasia, you can’t do that in this case

Oh, I can’t just pluck it out?

They will close up and spread spores around your tank, that means they will multiply like crazy, try aiptasia x

Oh no, ok. It looks like there is just one. If I leave it alone, what’s the outcome?

User Avatar @LeedsReefer 15h

Depends, I’d just do some googling on them
