Very gently pried the frag off then dipped it in recommended mix of peroxide solution for 5 minutes. Zoa is angry but time will tell if it will be okay. Almost looked like came off of frag in whole piece which I thought was uncommon for aptasia.

That is not a very big aptasia but it is an aptasia and it only takes one to seed a tank. I have hundreds, but now less thanks to some berghia nudibranches
