I have a 32 bio cube with a maroon clown and an anemone in it and it's getting overun with aiptasia. I want to transfer the clown and the anemone into my 100 gallon do I need to worry about aiptasia being hitchhiking on them ?
Thanks in advance

I can’t think of any way an aiptasia would be able to hitchhike on either of those. If you’re also transferring some of the rock that the nem is on then it’s entirely possible.

A hitchhiker can go on the anemone . But do not put him in a dip!!! It will kill him if you cannot quarentine him keep an eye out to make sure he is not carrying aiptasia. I would go buy a cheep 5 or 10 gal tank to quarentine them both before transferring .its alot easier to control in a 5 or 10 gallon then to fix problems in 100 gallon tank
