Is it apitasia?

[Mightyfish]

Sorry about the unclear photo. Is it apitasia inbetween zoas (on left hand side)?

Could be, but the photo is not clear enough.

Hopefully this pic is clearer. Suspect is kind of in the middle of the photo. I am so worried could anyone tell me whether it is apitasia or not?

Looks like aptasia to me. Peppermint shrimp will take care of it for you. I've had aptasia before and once I put a peppermint in there, the aptasia doesn't make it through the night. Hope this helps.

I bought this zoas piece yesterday and now have removed from tank so it had been in my tank for 16 hours. Do you think it is too late it may have spread already? This morning I cannot see the apitasia anymore may be it has shrunk inside.... it does not actually move like anemone right?

Don't move but can pull completely in so you can't really see them.

I had a (smaller) aiptasia on growing in between my Zoa's that I left there for almost two weeks (one week to notice, one week to decide a course of action). I took my zoa frag out, pulled the aiptasia off, rinsed the zoa before I put it back, and 3 months later none have shown up anywhere else.

Not sure if that is the best course of action to follow (I'm sure someone else can give you better advice) but at least in my case the aiptasia didn't spread.
