[pmac90]

any ideas on this one??? it's smaller then a dime and has tenticles like aptasia...

 

[DaBird]

:lurk:

The true spelling is Aiptasia, but to identify what this is, a clearer photo would help.

 

[DaBird]

I thought there was an "I" in there somewhere...

 

[pmac90]

yeah, i realize there is an I in there... it was 1:30 am after a night in Atlantic city, NJ

I'll try to get a better pic but it is on the front glass and hard to focus on. that's actually a pic from my phone... cause i can't get my point and shoot to get a remotely clear shot on it.

a little more detail may help. It has tenticles like aiptasia... but does not have a body like the pest species. it's more of a mouth (on the underside) with the tenticles coming off (very flat).

OH BOOMER, where are you???

 

[pmac90]

hopefully new pic later tonight... bump.
