Calmwaters First Saltwater Build

[Calmwaters]

Under the white part would be best

I think I did it right I just put the coral in a little groove on one of the rocks for now. I hope it's okay and I didn't kill it or something. The evil rock is now in the trash.

You did good!

 

[Calmwaters]

those dont look like coral I pretty sure its aiptasia. Youll want to nip that in the bud quick. Theyspread like crazy. Lots of threads on how to kill. If you can pull out rock you can super glue or epoxy them. Make sure its the entire body of the aiptasia.

Thank you I'm so glad this group saved me from an invasion of these little jerks.

Even if it dies, you learned a few things!

True now I know for sure what aiptasia looks like and can keep an eye out for it.

 

[Calmwaters]

I know and I accept that but I don't have to like it. Lol

You can take a dremel and cut the rock around the base and close as possible.

She already evicted it. Lol
