Got some LR from KP Aquatics about 8 weeks ago which was QT’d and then placed in DT. No signs of anything.

3 weeks ago got a bunch of stuff from InfoPacific Sea Farms (IPAF), also in QT.

This morning I saw the below on a piece of Uvula macro algae from IPSF.

Really hoping this is not aptasia, does look different. Thoughts?

It’s gone, good thing for a QT to see this stuff!

honestly looked like it may NOT have been Aiptasia and since it either came from KP Aquatics in the Florida Keys or IPSF in Hawaii I think it could have been something else, Majano?

eitherway it’s too risky
