so don't even attempt to F-Aiptasia it? Normally aiptasia are pinkish, this one is striped. So think just toss the polyp and keep the limpet?Yeah, the anemone is probably not a keeper; the limpet probably is a keeper.
googling pictures it only shows bubblesI'm betting it's something called a light bulb anemone.

Thanks, I decided it was not worth it. I used the F-Aip which looked like it killed it (yeah right) then pried the Fram off the disc and also noticed a small blood worm. So I just dropped the tiny limpet in the tank. I'm sure it will be eaten quickly though. The polyps were only for my urchin to snack on anyway. He doesn't eat the algae wafers or seaweed salad. Cleaned the glass/ rock and mowed down a colony of polyps which is why I got them. Thanks though.Yeah it's definitely an aiptasia, they gain rings of white pigment it higher light. I would carefully and swiftly eliminate it.
That's the best use for zoanthids I've heard of lol. What species of urchin are you feeding?Thanks, I decided it was not worth it.

That's fascinating. I've heard of people using tuxes to eliminate the invasive blue cloves, so I guess it checks out that they'd eat other cloves too.Well they’re just clove polyps (not zoas) so inexpensive food. He’s a Tuxedo.
