Spotted this the other morning before lights came on. It seems to disappear during the day and only come out in the dark. Anyone know what it is?

good or bad?

bad mate...deal with it as you would aiptasia...squirt with boiling water, joe's juice etc etc..

apparently joes juice doesn't work with these things

 

[Reefscape]

my understanding is that aiptasia control products do work for these...as does covering with kalk paste, injecting with a kalk solution.

You can actually try and remove these with tweezers as they usually release clean unlike aiptasia's...

I've heard they are more difficult to get rid of as well. Same methods as Nikko said, just have to really diligent.

So do you recommend trying joes juice for this as I have about 3 other things that look similar but without the the same markings, thses are clear with short tenticles

Would a peppermint get rid of these? The problem I have here though is a I have a mated pair of boxer shrimp in my tank.
