First Aiptasia sighting- what would you do?

[mysaltwatertank]

Just found my first Aiptasia, and I have notices this Kenya Tree has been struggling on and off.

Suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Thank you everyone- read all of the replys and made a plan. Popped out the base that was attached to the live rock, pulled off the two good trees, and reattached them on the rock directly with reef glue. The base that had the dying tree and aiptasia is now on the trash. Problem solved?? We will have to wait and see! Thanks again for all of the advice.

Just looks like a dark clump of algae outside of the water

That was thorough I believe he can’t make it back in the tank

im going to attempt to get a couple more examples of not kidding around aiptasia removal before making the thread but this will be example #1 when it goes

Heck let’s start it now, who cares if it’s slow to run. Ok here it goes it’ll take a few mos but I’ll push it to eventual few pages of thoroughs

nice first run.
