Special Request!!! I want and Need Aptasia

[bman]

Hello, I know this is an unusual request and i am probably the only person on here that actually wants aptasia anemone's. I am willing to either pay .10 each for them or trade them for blue leg hermits or possibly other atlantic inverts. I need a lot of them like 500 to 1000 of them. Please contact me if you can get them for me. I need them for a project i am working on with my daughter.

Now that's a first!
I wish i had some left, but the last chunks of LR I had with some on it were dipped in HOT water and have been outside drying in the sun for a week now. . Several years ago I could have just given you my 90g, and you'd have all you'd ever draemed of.

I have quite a few now that I just took apart my tank and can reach the ones that I could never kill before.
Where are you located?
Care to tell us anything about your project? I'm intrigued to know why someone would WANT aiptasia! LOL

I am in the florida keys (Summerland Key) We are doing a project on the reproduction of these anemone I am also working on a product that may kill them easier and is reef safe.

Check with all your local LFS, if they have recently torn down a customer's tank, they may pay you to take them away. I've seen LR tanks full and when I ask why, they usually say "Yeah, we just tore down someone's tank and got this outbreak from their rock".

I have a zillion of them in my 120 but I have no idea how I'd get them off the rocks to get them down to you.
