I am not good at identifying zoanthids because they have so many lol does anyone know what these are. They are large polyp zoanthids which I believe would be a palythoa...maybe. It is also orange.
Those palythoas look like"Gold Dust Palythoas ". Glows real well under LEDs and usually grows weed like fast.
I have a filefish and can say that I think he works great. He is from ORA so I know he will eat aptasia
I've heard all fish that eat them can be hit or miss. My Copper Band Butterfly wiped mine out but I've talked to people who had one that wouldn't eat them. I've heard butterfly fish like racoons and similar species eat the fire out of them.
I have heard if u get ur Aiptasia eating critter from ORA they have conditioned them to eat them. Have u heard the same? Because if so I am going to order something. I’m thinking peppermint shrimp because my tank is not big enough for a butterfly and filefish can nip at softies.
