Thanks for all the help guys

Hi I have a lot of LR with aptasia and have been killing it off a little at a time, but always seems to come back. Can I take a piece out at a time, let it dry out and then place it back in the tank? I plan on keeping it out for about 2 months then placing it back in? Or do i have to cure it?

Excellent. Let me know how it goes. Happy hunting. :thinking:

Seems prety normal to me. Do you have some more info: water parameters, how long has your system been up. In general, most anemones will travel around till they find "their" spot. Let him find his own spot. When my shrimp messed with my anemone, it was because they were hungry or the anemone...

I had the same thing happen to me. They both died this way. I would recommend returning it back to the store. They recommend a tank be set up a min of 1 year before introducing them to a system. They also require excellent water conditions. Even though your water tests great, may be to soon...

Hey Fish, A puffer or eel will work, but i have corals. I have more $ in corals then fish. :thinking: mr mantis will stumble just have to be there.

jt, I set up a 215 and did not want powerheads in the tank. I went with one large pump as a closed loop to max gph and that did the trick for me. I have a picture of how i did mine.

Thanks Beth for the help. I started treating these guys last night and they were not liking it but I was. I managed to destroy about 5 fairly large ones. This is my first time using it so I got a little extra JJ in the tank by mistank. My CA is at 500 and has been there for about 2 months...

I have a mated pair of gold bands that host a BTA. Very entertaining to watch them take care of and guard.

How much joes juice can I use safely to get rid of the aiptasia? Situation: My 215 has been up and running for 5 months now with very few issues. I started out with 5 peppermint shrimp that controlled the aiptasia population very nicely. I bought a mated pair of GSM's and also an LTA they were...

I had a mysterious spider looking crab appear out of no where. It turned out to be a decorator. Here is my pic. https://www.saltwaterfish.com/vb/showthread.php?t=201477

I keep my reef at 1.025

Urchins are very cool and are good algae eaters. You have to watch them on your purple coraline algae they will eat this as well.

Hi Dr V, Welcome to the boards, I've heard a lot of negative things about crushed coral. Might be a good time to change this out?

Excellent. Thank you.
