![]() Could an aptasia sit in my corner overflow for 8 months without even 1 more being spawned in the corner?
It's gotta be about 8 gallons of water in there, I would think after 8 months, with one big aptasia in there, it would be wall to wall aptasia, no? Especially because no predators could reach them, I think they would take off. |

![]() If the food was abundant and water conditions ideal (re high nitrate/ammonia) then they may replicate like that but just because they haven't is no reason to assume this is not aiptasia.
It is clearly some kind of glass anemone and you may have a ticking time bomb there. |

![]() Yes, it is about conditions that make it right for replication. I had a large aiptasia in my first tank for about 12 years. Over that time, the population grew from one..to two. I guess the conditions were never right for it to multiply.
