    sounds like Aptasia, I agree on a pic since the "white" is a little throwing.

    Peppermint shrimp are good at ridding your tank of Aptasia if that's the case.

    The white flower is just to tiny for me to get a picture. After looking at the post about Aptasia this does not look like that at all. I did some searching on the net and it looks like the head of a feather duster with not body. Could this be a feather duster in the making?


    I know pics would be great but I am being challenged at even getting a picture of it. If there are secreats to taking pictures of objects in a tank please do share.

    we use a tri-pod when we need to takes pics of our tank... It works really well.. and you get a more clearer pic.. but it also depends on what type of camera you are using... After some practice you will be like a pro!! :D good luck..

    I cant not get a close pic at the moment. I hope for it to grow alittle larger for a better pic. The flower is about the size of push pin end.<-- if that makes sense

    It looks as it is attached directly to the LR. I can not see a tube at this time. The end does appear to look like a feather duster but like I said I cant see a tube.
