Ok troops need some suggestions here.
While inspecting my tank the other night after getting back from a business trip I found an Aiptasia a single, still relatively small (although bigger than its neighbors, my Halloween Zoa).
This guy is right smack in the middle of my Halloween zoa colony! :eek3:
He is definitely affecting the neighboring zoa's now because they are not opening, so I am worried now that he will cause more harm as he grows. I need to get him out of there, but need some suggestions.
I have a sirringe, but not one pin point enough that I would risk hitting my Zoa with if I tried to inject something. I thought about just taking the frag out and trying to get him off that way, but not sure how or if that would work. In the past, I have been fortunate that my Aiptasia have been on rocks that I could get out and fry the little suckers, but this one got into a place that this is not possible.
I just got this Halloween zoa frag from a local swap about two months ago, so it is still kind of small and hasn't had a chance to spread yet.
