What do you think?
Looks a bit like an Aiptasia but not exactly like the last one i blasted.

This one seems to have thicker arms/tentacles and the tips seem to be a little whiteish.
Would like a second opinion before i get the juice out.

Thanks.

I hate aptasia. Had an outbreak a few years ago in my 55g. Bought one peppermint shrimp and he cleaned them out in less than a week.
 
very true indeed, you just need to ensure that you buy a "True" peppermint...even then, there is no guarantee that they will help to control aiptasia....

I brought a "True" peppermint and i think he is scared Sh*tless of aiptasia...Wont go near them...All the same, he makes a nice edition to the reef...

Thought so. They come out when they know it's feeding time tho.

Been thinking bout moons, seen some on ebay. Not made mind up yet tho cos not sure if ebay ones are cheap and nasty or all the same.
