will aiptasia kill sps???

[trillyen]

Will the aiptasia kill the SPS, i have 2 peppermint shrimp in the tank for aiptasia, but they havent found it yet, i know p shrimp may eat the sps polyps but ive had good luck with them so far, plus they are well fed
Can i cut it off, or use joes juice near the sensitive sps or stlyaphora i have,same thing right!!!
thanks!!!

if they touch, the aptasia will more than likely sting the sps.

For sure the Aiptasia will sting and SPS they get in contact with, and without proper maintenance will spread like wildfire.

yeah i got p shrimp, and they seem to get all of my aps but the 1 by my darn sps
i really dont wanna use joes juice but i may have to cause i really love the way my sps is doing, it looks like its thriving so far and already!!!!
