Soak this nasty thing!

There are also oddballs who like it, and I noticed that physical destruction yields results. This is not aiptasia. In my aquarium, I destroyed it exactly like that... I crushed them one by one with tweezers until I was convinced of their absence...

Joseph

Exactly. It's me. I saw them completely covering a large stone - they look just amazing! Were there problems with the corals? I mean, can you describe more - why was it so crucial to destroy them?

Karen

That's the thing... They can settle both near and among the parazoanthids, protophyllites, and anywhere else, burning their neighbors in the process. In general, it's all like with aiptasia, only it's much easier to get rid of them without Helmonenko's involvement. Nevertheless, they are still beautiful. So, if they don't bother the corals and the owner likes them, let them stay... but only somewhere far from them, and under constant control... By the way, Helmonenko, in my observations, doesn't see them up close... And also, they migrate...

There were problems, and not just with the corals.

Let's bring up the topic. It's still interesting.

I had two beautiful Mayanos, one blue and the other green... they died after a small injection of vinegar, and now I even regret it... who were they bothering?

Megan

didn't reproduce?

One let the baby go into the mushrooms, I got scared and killed both of them. Then Tkach said it was in vain, that they live and don't really burn anyone... they were cool.

Charles

Mayano can burn without problems. The truth is that this doesn't manifest much with mushrooms, but when it appears, for example, in the center of a colony of parzoanthus or protophyllum, that's when your hand will reach for the tool. Believe me, I'm telling you as someone who has gone through this. Although they are so cool and reproduce well...

That is, she didn't spit out spores (I read about it online), but rather through division? Maybe you didn't notice the little one right away? I'm currently keeping an eye on mine, growing them on a separate stone. But for safety, they are still in the quarantine zone.

Chris

I saw green mayano at Tkach's, even in the colony of zoanthids.

Tkach and Aiptasia have gorgeous ones living on corals, and today I almost poisoned my aquarium with vinegar. I rushed home during lunch and, in a fit of anger, tried to kill two small ones; the soft corals immediately closed up... I thought it was the end, but they turned out to be tough and survived... Many of these roses just need to be controlled, and they can also be stunning.

Ryan

Be careful, or you might end up harming it, and you'll have a new issue on your hands... P.S. I never thought of using vinegar, forget it, otherwise your reef will suffer. Find other safe methods that benefit the reef.

Michael

To be honest, I've always had problems with aiptasia. I just can't control it; that stuff killed my tridacna yesterday, it got into its shell and... And it also poisons the softness, burns it.

Shawn

Ahem... (ayptazie fighters) The topic is called "Mayan in the aquarium." Confess - who got burned? How did you fight (successfully or not)? Who is sitting quietly like mice and bothering no one?

Joshua3019

To be honest, I didn't find a calvadosacker, so I've been dealing with all the pests from day one using vinegar heated in the microwave (Tkach's recipe)... as of today, there are no pests left (except for the sheep). The secret is that I treat no more than 2 objects at a time... the mayan died immediately and forever (although after the injection it sat there as if alive, then just disappeared, I felt sorry for it)... I wouldn't recommend my method to anyone, but hey, everyone is alive for now...
