GaryL November 15, 2004 Share November 15, 2004 does anyone know what this is? im not sure and i hope its not what i think it is. sorry its not a better pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michaelg November 15, 2004 Share November 15, 2004 How big is it? might be what you hope it isn't- a majano anenome. If it is, I'd nuke that baby immediately. Does not look like aptasia. Might be a corallimorph though? Almost looks like a baby riccordia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryL November 15, 2004 Author Share November 15, 2004 it seems to close up intil the 10k's kick off then they open up at night. its about the size of an eraser on a pencil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelg November 16, 2004 Share November 16, 2004 man, if it's that small, I'd say its too soon to call. Definately keep your eye on it. If it is a majano, it should get bigger before it starts reproducing. Might be a keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryL November 16, 2004 Author Share November 16, 2004 i have getting alot of life off this rock i got from reefotto. so many worms and pods too. in a way i cant wait to see what it is, but im dreading the majano curse. it seems like the mouth is taller than the whiter spots or tentacles. i have a few about all the same size.

GaryL June 7, 2005 Author Share June 7, 2005 this anemone is actually a corallimorph as i found it in julian sprungs book. the name is corynactis. i have a ton of em. but they dont seem to affect the corals or others in the tank. better pic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishface June 7, 2005 Share June 7, 2005 They look great! One man's weed is another man's flower I guess. I have two mojano that I thought were a treasure on a peice or LR. A little over a year ago I had bought an existing setup, and added a few pieces of LR. I actually bought a piece of rock because one was on it. Leesburge Pets thought it was a rare dwarf species...go figure. Anyway, they've been around almost a year, and split occasionally. I haven't tossed them yet, but maybe this weekend.

Lee Stearns June 7, 2005 Share June 7, 2005 I did the same thing in my Nano cube where I could control it, I thought. watched just to see what it would do- Well pretty soon they were a couple of them and they released thier hold for new territory. and I was finding them nestling into my GPS and zoos - And are they determined little B's I try to manually remove then when ever I see them now, ususally takes several tries at scratchingthem out- I thought vinegar might work but they come back out and says wheres lunch and dinner- Did not even have total success on the first try with Joes juice- I definitely wouldn't take a chance in a large system -- too many places to hide and too tough to kill- Aptasia is a piece of cake compared to these guys. ON yours Gary I would jsut watch it for now- the polyps look a bit too buble like and might be a ricordia- or bumby mushroom- but if it picks up and moves I would put out a contract on his darling little life.

GaryL June 7, 2005 Author Share June 7, 2005 mine do not look as spectacular as that last pic. i borrowed that pick from another sitefor clarity. sorry for the confusion. in my tank they are wide spread and to small for it to harm other things. you really have to look for them in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowardofNOVA June 7, 2005 Share June 7, 2005 Does anyone have a syringe that I could use. Mike favorite Majano's and Aiptasia are doing their best to take hold in my office 10g tank. Last week I had 1 of each. Today about a dozen Majano and going strong? I guess I'll use vinegar for starts? Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryL June 8, 2005 Author Share June 8, 2005 try lemon juice from a real lemon. i think jacob used it and it worked wonders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emissary June 8, 2005 Share June 8, 2005 Does anyone have a syringe that I could use. Ditto! I'm desperately searching for a small syringe to support my heroin... uh, no that's not it. So I hear that you can get syringes for this purpose from a vetinary supply store. Howard -- if you find a place to get one, pick me up a couple too, would you?

mutley29 June 8, 2005 Share June 8, 2005 You can get syringes from CVS or Rite Aid, thats where my wife got mine, Just don't go in and ask for one after a rough night, looking like S**T, or they won't sell you one. They work wonders, i've tried boiling kalk water to zap a few aiptasia in my tank to no avail, will try the lemon juice next, and getting used to the refraction too HTH Anton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REALLY. I thought you'd need a prescription. I wonder if it depends on the pharmacy. They work wonders, i've tried boiling kalk water to zap a few aiptasia in my tank to no avail, will try the lemon juice next, and getting used to the refraction too boiling? What about the "bottom of the barrel" kalk? ... the chunky bits, provided you can get some into the cylinder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbartco June 8, 2005 Share June 8, 2005 Guys, my sister is a vet and I have loads of syringes and various needles. I will bring them to the social at TRT on Fri. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Stearns June 8, 2005 Share June 8, 2005 cool Dartco- I have the very small 21 ga needles- but that is what I am talking about is big ole 14 ga horse needles- I would be in for one or two if you have them- See you Friday- Anything anyone needs me to bring? Sand, chaeto, beer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbartco June 8, 2005 Share June 8, 2005 As luck would have it, she is an equine vet, so I have 16 - 24''s. Could get larger possibly this weekend when I see her, but not by Fri. Was free, but now that you bring it up, will trade for a small sand innoculation, or if you are trimming the cheato? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caribbean Jake June 8, 2005 Share June 8, 2005 I got syrinnges. Come over and pick them up. LMK when you aer coming. Lemon Juice works fine and does not hurt other corals. Jacob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I guess that makes up my mind as to whether or not I'm going to the social at TRT on Friday. Hey; you guys who signed up for free Xenia (you know who you are) -- you going to be there? PM me if so. sign me up for two "small" needles. Not much I can offer ah... small colony of button polyps (they make your arm tingle if you squeeze them!) or ah... little mushrooms?
