Well the Caulastrea is growing, and the tentacles reached at night the hammers ( 3 inch long tentacles from 1/4 inch polyps). One got hit slightly, the other looks bad. Any chances of recovery, or any masure to be taken?

This calls for multiple angles. The Copperband, 10 pepermint (they worked great for my, and they are cheap). If you have an elegance coral, you could move it around. One sting and thats the end of the aiptasia. Good luck.

Check your phosphates and get them down, that was my problem because I was feeding brime shrimps. pH and temperature are also most important. If the main body desintegrates (bacterial infection), you can cut the polyp stalks (They seem to be more resistant) and distribute them in the tank in...

Why do you think its not happy? Only because it has not the usual shape? It somehow has quarter sized plain center part from which tentacles extend outwards. It has radial light yellow strips running from the mouth outwards. It's happlily capurting brime shrimp and moving them into the mouth...

No, has nothing to do with aipatsia for sure. This is a nice white anemone. Had aiptasia enough until I got some pepermint shrimp, which took care of it in two nights.

The color is real. Here is a flashed one with some clowns as reference. This is the brightest and most colorful I have ever seen of these, thats why I am not sure what it is. Montipora are not that colorfull usually. the polyps are a little retracted right now, since it is already dark, at day...

Came on some macroalgae as hitchhiker. Its beautiful with yellow fluorescence strips on it, which don't show up in the picture. Its so bright that its very difficult to photograph. 0.5 inch in diameter. Thanks a lot

Would like to know the exact name of this one. Thanks for the help

This grew from a few polyps to 1inch in size. Individual polyps 1-2mm, the skeleton is greenblue. The lighter colored singel poyps below h ebrown encrusting sps are also new to me. Does anyone know what these are? Thanks
