While I cannot equal the quality of kilnakorr's pictures, I was inspired to post a video of a juvenile Berghia swarm as they finish off an Aiptasia. The smallest grid markers are 1/16 inch, and the squares are 1/8 inch.

I dream of getting a swarm like that! Very nice.While I cannot equal the quality of kilnakorr's pictures, I was inspired to post a video of a juvenile Berghia swarm as they finish off an Aiptasia. The smallest grid markers are 1/16 inch, and the squares are 1/8 inch.
I honestly cannot see why this wouldn't work.I think I read someone (?Sabellafella) posted that they had success feeding minced large Aiptasia to baby Berghia, but I have not ever tried that
I have two 10 gallon tanks where I am growing aiptasia and experimenting. One tank has carbon on the bottom and the other tank has larger gravel. Im not sure which is better to use.
When I get a berghia breeding tank going what is the best way to harvest the aiptasia to move to the berghia tank?
Sure.@kilnakorr any updates?
Pretty sure, it is my shrimp(s). Have had no luck catching them, and as of this moment not even sure they are still alive, or maybe in the overflowInteresting. Very strange that they would stop laying, are you sure they haven't just found a hiding place for the eggs? Healthy adults should lay for several months at least.
I see a lot of variation from one egg batch to the next in hatch, but I usually just set up two or three at a time and one set will give me more than I can raise anyway.
Do you know what might be eating them in your display? I think nocturnally active predators (shrimp/crabs) are probably the biggest risk.
