Are these giant palys?

[DracoKat]

i was given these guys for my pest pico tank- they are about an inch wide. You can see comparison to the zoas beneath

Are these the grandis giant palys?

 

[mkutsch]

Indeed they are!

Those are the devil... Not in disguise.

+1. DONT get them, they aren't cool, they're demonic. They'll take over your tank in seconds.

 

[DracoKat]

thank you! I just wanted to make sure.

then they'll be perfect for my Pico "pest" tank, lol. I am planning on all invasive, pest type of corals in this tank

 

[mkutsch]

Are cinnamon palys considered invasive too?

 

[BBoley24]

That's a new one

 

[mkutsch]

Oh man, they are SO COOL.

 

[mkutsch]

Stupid me. Of course they are.

IMO, most palys are invasive. I try not to get them for my 75g tank, but for my pico, any rejects are welcomed!

I wish my Captain America palys were invasive

I wish my Captain America palys were invasive

I got some pretty nice space monsters that are growing like mad but im not complaining

 

[BBoley24]

I love my Captain but just won't grow. It's frustrating

Is there a safe way to remove them? I had some Paly's take over some primo real estate, they're not really bothering anything currently, but figured this is as good of a thread to ask in case the OP is going to remove them. I know either Zoas or Palys can cause blindness if mishandled!

@Ocelaris It's best to wear gloves and goggles when handling them. And a mask to cover the mouth.

Probably best to take the rock out entirely and toss/sell/give away. Otherwise, cutting/peeling the paly's away is the next best bet
