I have a small rbta that died back and is slowly growing back to health. Looks exactly the same as mine in the pic. Does it move or shrink down? Try feeding it and see if it responds correctly.

Orange Ricordia polyp. Give it to me.



No, it's a crappy majano anemone.

As everyone has told you - will spread like wildfire when fed. Yikes!

It's not a majano guys. I am not sure what the common name is but it's actually worse than a Majano. It has a more potent sting but can still rapidly spread like a Majano. If they are out in the open peel it off. If you can't do that use Joe's Juice.

They can sometimes be very attractive looking, but none the less, a pest anemone.

Buy some Kalkwasser, find a small syringe, mix some kalk and water into a paste and inject it into/onto the majano. It will kill it 90% of the time, once in a while, they require a second shot.

Try cleaning the return pump, then smacking it against something hard a couple times, mine did the same thing a couple weeks ago when Skinny Joe was over and we got mine working again.

As for the emperor, try unplugging/replugging it in a couple times, we had one we got working by doing this.

It's not a majano but you could still get rid of it like you would with a majano.
