« on: September 27, 2012, 13:40:23 »
I swore I would NOT put any Anthelia anywhere near my 20 gallon tank.... and somehow I have it growing now in random places...   :beee:  If I scrape it off will it just spread of how can I get rid of it?

Just keep taking it out as fast as you see it start. Then after a while maybe try some kalkwasser or Joes Juice or maybe someone  else has the answer. But thats all I can think of.

Anthelia is easier to get rid of than clove polyps.  They are very similar species but clove polyps grow low to the rock and are almost impossible to remove.  I finally haulted a clove polyp "issue" by covering all patches with epoxy and cyanoacrylate.  The same should work w/anthelia.  First remove the main stalks and then be sure to cover the remnants with a nice blanket of epoxy and cyanoacrylate.

You might also try an aiptasia zapper for anthelia, if it's just random bits popping up.

That is a good one.  Some people actually like the stuff.  I personally can't stand it.
