does this look like aptasia to anyone? Yes I pulled this from the Tidal Garden Website, and that's what I thought it was before I looked at the name.

It's a Parazoanthus axinellae. Our Copperband Butterflies are often confused as well!

Question is, can it outgrow aptaisa and conquer it for good?
We have never been in the circumstances of Parazoanthus vs aptaisa but I can say that we would have to bet on the aptaisa winning out. People often forget the power of the aptaisa sting can have on any coral.
