...at best, especially if you have a large infestation and there are any fish that need to be fed in the tank. I have 10 Peppermints, and a Copperband Butterfly in my 155 and I still have to kill aiptasia manually. Once the peppermints or anything else with exception of the Berghia Nudibranch...

...bag down in the sump 2 times with no help. Next, we are being overtaken by aiptasia anemone! Maybe 20 right now. We were told that the Copperband Butterfly would graze on these guys and over time take care of all of them. It's been 3 weeks now and not 1 is gone. What gives? This fish wont eat...

Silvermon.....I made a similar mistake when I started......I bought a raccoon butterfly and copperband cause I thought they were neat looking.....SIGH....I did not know much then, My tank was fairly new, and I lost the copperband rather quickly......the raccoon was a freakin monster....beat...

It's not a guarantee that the Copperband Butterfly is going to eat aiptasia, especially if they're in a system that is fed. My copperband is a model citizen, never touches any polyps/feather dusters, but he also doesn't go near the aiptasia. I've found with almost all creatures we can put in our...

...area that my lionfish likes to sit in behind the rocks sometimes, so I didn't wanna cover up the opening to it. Also, I might be getting a Copperband butterfly to help take care of some aiptasia. (I know there's a risk of them nipping at polyps after the aiptasia gets wiped out, but I'll try...

...(keeps it from speading out of control, but it hasnt killed any large anemones) aiptasia X (IME has about a 50/50 sucess rate). The only other things i havnt tried are kalk paste, copperband (because my tank is to small) and joes juice or any other brand of chemical warefare besides aiptasia x.

...might have this little demon in their tank and 1 good way to get rid of it. Yes this fish is a larger species and delicate as you say. My copperband was supposed to be a 'delicate' species but that had to be the easiest fish I ever had.... Everyone takes risks in their own hands but this is a...

A copperband would be the best for the job, but I remember reading they get easily stressed by agressive fish. I hate these aptaisa anemones and I made the mistake to ignore the one or two I had and they just spread, slowly but surely and now some are under rocks, between rocks, almost...

Wouldn't a Copperband Butterfly be a better option if they are in tight spots, plus I think Copperband are the most notorious Aiptasia eaters....There is a long list of beautiful Butterflies I would like to have someday, every time I see a Butterfly fish, I ask myself why I don't have any.

Nice, I never thought of one of those. I typicly avoid urchins because I dont want to risk geting stuck. Then there is the whole reef safe issue with many urchins. Then again, on a gamble I put in a copperband butterfly. Lucky for me it panned out. He eats only aptasia and food I feed him.
