Problem
Ok I have been away for 8 months at University and my Dad is a busy man, this has led to (I kid you not) 1000's of rock anemones popping up in my dad's 90 gallon tank. Im quite aware there is no "quick fix" to this problem as I have tried many of them... Jo's juice, pepermint shrim, vinegar. These methods have killed some of them, the problem is there is just way to many... On some rocks there are possibly 50 or 60 of them. Is there any system I can implement to get rid of them. Perhaps put the whole LR piece in a bucket of vinegar and kill everything on the rock (including good bacteria) then placing them in a isolation tank and growing the good bateria then putting them back in the main tank. I will try pretty much anything.
Tank Specs
90 gallons
55 gallon sump
reverse osmosis water
300 watts PC lighting (roughly)
2 pumps for circulation (cant read name to many rock anemones covering them)
1 inch CC sand bed
running for 10 months
It's a shame because he has beautiful healthy live stock and tons of coraline growth. Any help would be very much appreciated! On a side note I spotted a 2 inch worm last night that looked evil so im gonna have to capture him too! Oh man so much work.
Thanks for any help!!!
