Help! Was picking off majano from a rock that I took out, and it happened to squirt into the tank! It was the last majano left, so what can I do to stop them coming back from the juice they squirted?

Unfortunately nothing....once they release spores they go everywhere.

I'm not sure the juice were spores but when it irritated at all aptasia and moja spread fast.

One of the many love/hate relationships in the hobby. Actually it's a hate/hate relationship no love at all haha

I’m not convinced that majano spread via ‘spores’ rather by pedal fission. I’ve never had them spread beyond a single tank in my system .... unlike aiptasia.

You must inject Kalkwasser powder mixed into a paste or even aptasia X into the CENTER core to kill it. Any other removal attemp other than electric wand will encourage population.

I keep green Majanos for decorative purposes and they have only spread by dividing.
