The image is a close-up of a creature stuck to the glass wall of my 29g. It's an inch long. What is it?

Thanks

Aptasia- one of the bad guys of the reef tank, get rid of him before they take over!

 

[geosync]

Or you can use a highly concentrated kalk mixture... It's much cheaper in the long run...

Lol. Took me awhile...

hehe... as much as I despise Finding Nemo references it reminded me of the fish who thinks her reflection is her sister.

IIRC, you arnt suppose to squish them because that'll release spores(mushrooms?) or eggs or something so i would go with aiptasia X. If thats the only one, you could try a bit of lemon juice

^^^Shut off all pumps and use a hose to siphon it out as you scrap it off.That way it (or pcs of it)won't have the chance to go floating around and get lost.
