Anthelia over running tank!!!
 
It is starting to choke off my zoanthus. What would be the best way to controll and get rid of some? Should I just take a razor and cut them off? I guess that would be like fraging wouldn't it? Never done that. I would think I need to remove the rock and put it into a container to control the toxins. Anyone have suggestions, Wendell? :smile:

To remove it, try to peel it from the rock. If you leave any tissue behind, it will grow back. No toxins involved to worry about!

Thanks for the reply Brad. I tried that and the smell on my hands was awfull. I just asumed it was toxins.

No, they just really stink. I have some and its darned hard to get rid of that smell after pruning it.

If I knew how to ship it you could have a rock full of it.

Are you talking about Rock anemone?
If so try using a seringe to inject them with straite viniger.
DO NOT do to many in 1 day,the viniger will affect your P.H

No it is a type of Xenia. I was able to pull the zoo out off of the rock. It opened up right away and is once again happy. Don't understand why it hasn't attached to a rock yet????
