Hitcher on zoas

[Shooter7]

When I picked up these pink zoas from Planet Reef, I spotted this guy on the rock with them. It was scrunched up and faded, looked like a ricordia on there, so I thought cool, free ric hitcher. After getting it home and looking at it more closely, realized it wasn't a ric. Finally took pics of it, folks in the discussion forum say baby green bubble tip - he's about an inch in diameter:

Nice prize!

Looks like a bubble tip to me, you got lucky on that buy.

 

[JxMetal]

yeah that's a green bubble tip

Not sure just yet what I'm going to do with him, though. I already have 2 RBTA's in my 120g, one of which is getting rather large and I'm considering trying to take him out to make more room for corals. I'm wondering how much of a chance there is he might move on me in there? Last thing I need is him wandering off and implanting in the main rocks where I can't get to him very easily. I may have to move this rock to my 10g for now.

You can cut the rock off that it is attached to and move it. Carefully use a flat head screw driver and a hammer to knock the rock off out from under it.

Cool!!!!

If you decide to sell the little green one or one of your rbta I would be interested in buying

 

[Shooter7]

No problem...a mere $200 each.

Man, at that price it is really hard to resist
