I use pickling lime, I mix it with tank water or RO water, and use an eye dropper to feed it to the little b@$%!*&$.
It's not like you're dumping a gallon of the product into your tank. Depending on the size of your system, the amount that you use shouldn't affect the water parmeters.

Depending on the size of your system, the amount that you use shouldn't affect the water parmeters. | That sounds like it would take care of the little b@$%!&$ for sure. My tank is a 20 cube so I have to use something that won't change the water chemistry though. I have been using the glue for soem time and it works every time, that is if I can get to the anemone. A few I have had to lift and turn the rock and if there are corals on it then it can be a pain.
Iv'e learned to put new rock into my refugium for a week or so before I place it into the display. But I am almost rocked out now. I have one more awesome piece I couldn't pass on that will be crammed beneath the ricordias above the GBTA and between the yellow zoos, or maybe if I jamb it through the opening where the ... I'll make it fit somehow. That way if any critters are there I don't want in the main tank I can usually get them before-hand. | |

I've been using joes juice for about 2 years....Its been so potent IME that a 5ml syringe will wipe out around 60 of em if you have a steady hand. Are you positive there glass anemones...? How are you using the juice? _________ Yes, tiny has an 11" legspan......  | |
