    Hi guys,

    Found this on my LR today. I don't know if it's a tiny zoa or the beginning of aptasia?

    LMK what you think!

    Thanks!

    its not an aipstasia it might be a zoa but im not sure let it grow for a little bit so id is easier dont worry if it does turn out to be an aipstasia you will be able to get a positive id before it starts to spread and even if it does there easy to get rid of

    defenetly a majuno, Nuke the sucker. You can tell how the pedel looking things on the outside look seperate, where as a zoa the pedals are more rounded and connected or more spread out if it was a clove.
