Sponges in Blasto

Dw79 · Mar 7, 2020

Noticed pineapple sponges in my Blastomussa Merletti this morning. They are clearly making it irritated.
Can they removed with tweezers or something, or do I have to wait them out?

I would try to use tweezers if possible it appears to annoy the coral. I too strugglr with pest just pull as much out as you can as I will do with my own tank later.

Thanks, just wasn't sure if it was so soft that I would only get small pieces and leave some behind to grow back. I will brake out the tweezers start picking at it

WHAT’S YOUR MOST MEMORABLE EXPERIENCE WITH A CORAL THAT LOOKED LIKE IT MIGHT NOT MAKE IT?

I’ve seen a dramatic comeback. I would have sworn it was a goner

A slow recovery, and it got back to looking healthy

It came back some, but never looked as good as it used to

I tried to save one, but it didn’t make it

Mine is still struggling...no comeback yet

I’ve never had a coral in serious trouble

See, this is why I don’t keep corals
