Please help identify this
 
So I bought this small piece of live rock from someone on this site a week or so ago for the red mushrooms and polyps on it…when I we went to pick it up I was told a frogspawn moved onto it (now I have a green frog spawn that doesn’t quite look like this guy)…and now after a week or so he has moved a little around the piece or rock, and now split into too guys!

So is it a frog spawn? Any ideas?? Is it good or bad???????????



This is when i frist got it

You may be a bit quick with the congrats. Looking at the size of it I would say more likely a majano anemone which look just like bubbletips but don't get much bigger then a nickel and can take over a tank... just like aiptasias

I agree - looks like a majanos. Kill ASAP.

At first I thought BTAs because they look big but now I'm not sure, the face isn't quite right. Big majanos I guess.

Keri 10-12-2008 06:34 AM

How big were the ones in his tank? twoonie sized or bigger?

My vote is Mojano... Joe's Juice it ASAP... even if it's not, not wrth the risk since you never paid for it to begin with...
