The mouth area is about the size of a quarter and it's pretty clear so it's hard to get a good picture

They both like Aiptasia to me! Get some Aiptasia X from Red Sea to get rid of them. Otherwise they can take over tanks. Aiptasia can grow in amazing and bad water conditions, but they also get big if you don’t get rid of them!

Or the correct aptasia eating species of peppermint shrimp. You have to do your research though lots of incorrect species being sold all the time.

I do have some aptasia x they are becoming an issue in the tank I can't have shrimp because of the Picasso(he's been picking at the smaller ones) and snowflake eel I just wanted to make sure that's what they were as well I didn't realize they could get so large also with killing them all should I worry about spikes in amonia and such

I tried aiptasia X and they just multiplied. Now I am using Franks F-Aiptasia, So far so good.
