Just make sure to let it cool thoroughly before rinsing, and be sure to rinse thoroughly before returning it to the tank.

After I've done this do I scrape it off or do I just leave it on the LR? And won't it spike the ammonia?

Ok I placed the rock in boiling water like 5 mins ago and the rock turned green right away..the growth turned white

It will dissolve off the rock itself.

It did not desolve..it shrank and turned white..but it was still there

hey i just saw a post made by U4BOYZ about something growing on the LR. The growth on my LR look exactly like this....

 

[Joeysmissy]

ok it didnt desolved

 

[Bifferwine]

Well if you boiled it, it's effectively dead so no worries ;)

 

[mng777777]

ok it didnt desolved

How long did you let it boil? You dont need to worry about it dissolving, or trying to scrape it off as long as you boiled it thoroughly. Ha Biff?! :wink::wink::wink:

Well I left it in for 20 mins. It turned green and white and it isn't brown anymore. The growth turned white and shriveled up. It it just came right of when I rinsed it off. It's in the tank now. Thanks

I thought you went to the HH website and verified it was aiptasia... Too bad if it was a cup coral. I love them in my tank!

 

[Joeysmissy]

[Bifferwine]

It's okay. They are pretty common hitch hikers. Don't feel bad ;)

 

[mng777777]

Yeah no worries... You'll have more at some point in the hobby and they usually die off on their own anyways.
