Does anyone know which coral this is ?

[Peter Brom]

Started my first tank 6 months ago and added some corals (Zoanthus and Euphyllia and bubble tip anemone) 2 months ago. All are doing fine, but this morning i saw this new coral ?

See picture (bottom left).

Is it possible that after 2 months a coral reproduce ? and what is it ?

Thank you for replying.

Thats aptasia… or a glass nem. Pest, get something to kill it from your LFS or filefish, copperband butterfly fish, or peppermint shrimps will eat them. They sting corals.

Coral (top right/middle) is hammer, bottom left is an aptasea anemone

Ouch, i thought it was a new coral :).

Thank you, will deal with it immediately

Careful how you deal with it you can spread it if done incorrectly.

If you’ve got one, you’ve got 1000 more already that are too small to see. By all means, try to kill it, but they’re in your tank for good now (as they are with almost everyone’s).

Decided to use Joe Juice Aiptasia, because of the size of the tank. Indeed aiptasia is very difficult to find but the ones i found where dead immediately. Will keep looking for more but like you said they will be there for a long time.
