    the nudis will work unless they get eaten, but they usually work better in a trio or pack lol

    The appies are winning in one tank over here. I tried everything. I give up. You win! Last night there was a voice coming from the tank, telling me to order pizza.... I think it was them.

    We're starting from scratch with new everything!

    thanks to every body and i agree aiptasia x is the best (and where i live its $20 a bottle) but they spore and then you cant see the little ones. so to get them i need to see them i think ill try peps again but if that doesnt work im setting it out to dry.

    I got a a needle syringe and filled it with lemon juice and made sure to poke it threw the top of the stem and injected it and killed it asap. I did that 5 days ago and nothing as of yet. U have to be fast as they go into hiding. Im hoping this will work for the long run we shall see!

    +1 on the lemon juice they will wilt pretty quick with it. After I hit them with lemon juice I will seal their little foothold up with some calc paste to deter them from returning.

    Lemon juice will boost your pH


    Use Aiptasia X on the ones you can see, get a Butterflyfish and it'll eat whatever is left over, plus it's a really nice fish.
