Hi everyone, can someone help me identify what are those? Are they majano anemone? If they are, how do I get rid of them? Are there any fish that are reef safe and eat those? Thanks

Good ID! Sorry you have them. Majanos and Aptasia are like cockroaches. There are those you see and those you don't.

I don't know of any majano eating fish. I have used aptasia x on them in the past with success. I know others have used the majano wand. I'll let them chime in to let you know if it works. Good Luck!

Thanks, i will try aptasia x this weekend then. Hopefully my zoas won't get damaged during treatment because i see lots of majano inside the zoas colony :(

If going the aptasia X route with zoas nearby, try to wait for the zoas to close (nighttime perhaps). This way, if some of the chemical gets on them it won't harm them as much.
