aiptasia

Looking to buy the smaller mini Majano Wand. If you have one you’re wanting to sell, hit me up please.

A littleback story.. a few days ago my peppermint shrimp was seen trying to take food from my duncans. On my IG @spellboundreefing a handful of people warned about them eating their coral and that I should take him out. Today I went looking for my peppermint ship my duncans ATE HIM! They look...

Hi guys. I bought a zoa colony from the LFS. A healthy colony. A werk later i noticed these tiny (5mm) fan like think protruding between the zoas. I thought it was aiptasia and tried aiptasia x. The little bugger was to fast and this was not successful. I then tried superglue. This didn’t...

So I got home yesterday and noticed a little something extra growing on my emerald crab. Is it aiptasia? Is this normal? Have yall seen this? What should I do? Blake Hamilton

I didn't know about this.....or it's an individual quirk. I have a small 1 inch (ish) square boxfish, very light yellow in colour with grey/blue spots. It's eating brine shrimp readily and is really not shy of movement around the tank. Tonight I observed him decimating a small colony of aiptasia...

Hi reefers! Little question, I bought a couple of live rock and i noticed that there's a lot of little greenish button polyp or Aiptasia. Altough, i am not sure what is that. It seems to move a bit and not i have them everywhere in my tank... Do you have any cue on what is that thing? And how...

Hi @Randy Holmes-Farley can you please advice if there is anything concerning on my DIY Aiptasia killing solution? I have been using this recipe for around 4 years, without a problem, on my SPS dominated reef tanks and my experience is positive. However, I was wondering if it could be...

Hello, I have a bit of a small aiptasia infestation in one of my tanks, I have tried using aiptasia x, but for every one I kill, 10 more take its place. Will a filefish help, or is it a lost battle? I also found a bonded pair of filefish for sale, but can't find anything on how that works, any...

Looking to sell now that they have done their job. Completely cleared out an infested 180g. $6 each pick up in Port St Lucie, FL. Will consider trades for specific corals. Not shipping at this time.

has anyone ever had success on dealing with an aiptasia problem using peppermint shrimp? I am on my last nerve right now and thinking about getting a couple to kill them. I know you have to get a specific kind of peppermint shrimp in order for it to work but even then, it is still a hit or miss...

After a lot of reading on how to control /eliminate my majano problem.... I found an old Eric Borneman recipe for making up your own DIY juice to apply to these pests: Mix well: * 100ml of RODI water * 1 teaspoon of 100% Sodium Hydroxide * 2 teaspoons of Kalkwasser (Calcium Hydroxide) -Turn...

I'm having trouble containing aiptasias in my tank right now. I used Aiptasia away before but it seems to just make them recede for a couple of weeks and then come back. I would like to hear more options on how to completely kill them.

So, I was looking at my tank. On my small Zoanthids frag, there is one small Aiptasia. Should I take it out and put it in Hydroplex or is there something else I should do?

Hello folks, I am in need of your opinions and experience on this one. I have not been happy with one of my tanks lately and so I decided to create this thread. My reef tank has been setup for about a year and a half and it has gone through different changes and adaptations, but lately I have...

2 part question: lol ok so I don’t have the luxury of going into a store (maybe once or twice a year) that actually has corals.... I am in the works of building my son a zoa garden... so far I’ve been pleased with the company I’ve been ordering from (very little hitchhikers- even after...

I am wondering how many people have used Berghia Nudibranchs for an infestation of Aiptasia? I have always used Red Sea Aiptasia-X in the past to treat them as they spring up here and there. However, in the past 2 months or so they have gotten so out of hand all of a sudden. In my nano cube I...

Hi all, I’m about to use joes juice for my Aiptasia, and I have a few questions. 1. If any of Juice gets into my good bubbletip anemone, will it kill it? 2. Is ok to use for anemones in my filtration area (biocube)? 3. If my fish try to eat it, will they be alright?

Hi all, I’ve got about 3 aiptasia and I’m going to purchase joes juice. Only question I have, is it safe to use around my good anemones, they’re somewhat close to aiptasia, and also is it safe to use for one attached to my maxima clam? When injection I’ll turn off flow to maximize accuracy

So I tried getting this Aiptasia out of my tank, but my pliers just wouldn’t reach into that area. I’m thinking I’ll try something different in the morning, is it ok to leave it like this?

I tried sucking up an aiptasia from the sand bed near a maxima clam. Wasn’t able to get it, but surely disturbed both of them. Should I be concerned about anything?

I just saw this anemone fly into one of my aiptasia. Is it good, or should I try to take it out?

With everyone trying their hardest to QT, dip, and keep parameters perfect, it still can happen. Pests! Maybe bristle worms, Aiptasia, flatworms, or hair algae. The question what do YOU use for that unexpected nuisance? there are a lot of short term cures but what would you want to put and KEEP...

Peppermint shrimp doesn't seem to work (I put in 3 small one yesterday and I don't see them anymore LOL .... let alone them fixing my Aiptasia). I had a bigger Peppermint shrimp earlier this year and it seems to work on those Aiptasia but shame, I think it gets eaten by the BTA; perhaps what I...

Any body have any luck with these? I have a pretty heavy Aiptasia issue starting. I’ve added Berghia nubi branches but still think they will need some help.
