Just need some ideas about a recent trumpet coral frag I bought from my LFS for 5 dollars. It was in a tank that he was about to get rid of and install a new tank (Tank was getting very very old, and had developed an unstoppable coarse brush like algae). However on this trumpet frag, I have noticed roughly 5-6 baby-like aiptapsia residing on the base of it. So for now, I have left it sitting on a temporary surface (plastic lid) on my sand until I figure out a way to get rid of the baby aiptasia without damaging the trumpet coral. Any ideas anybody?
