    As a new reefer I've found so many of you're videos helpful! Thankyou! You inspired me to try and start my own channel!

    I've been in the reefing hobby for over 20 years and if I see aptasia I take the rock out and hold the rock over a cigarette lighter with the aphasia directly above the flame. 100% success rate and costs nothing

    Bought peppermint couple months ago and didn't even bother touch aiptasia. Went after friend advice and get couple more. Sorted my problem in matter of days. You need make sure that these shrimps get some food or may go after your corals.

    A small dose of lemon juice in a hypodermic needle and then quickly inserted into the mouth of pest will kill off any aiptasia. Always works for me with no issues.

      I've never had this method fail or had any spreading.

    I have only read that Red Sea Aiptasia x is a temporary victory and then they come back with a vengeance.

    Hi
    Use Berghia Nudibranch’s when I find Aiptasia
    In my Aquarium It’s natural and effective and works
    It’s one of the best kept secrets in the hobby. 👌

    how does one definitively identify whether it is a majano anemone or a bubble or ball tip anemone?

    Theres an aptasia in my 150 gal tank for one year and it didnt increase in population for some reason. Should i kill it?

    • @PrestigeReef
      @PrestigeReef  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They can do that for some reason where they remain a single head for years. These ones still can suddenly start spreading though

    Excellent - if my peppermint shrimp ever fail me, I’ll give it a try. 👍🏻

    Always been a fan of the Aiptasia Eating Filefish. Don't have one at the moment, and have caught glimpses of one or two Aips appearing! Never had an issue with corals. Will be getting a new one asap.

    I use it all the time and it works great. It's never hurt another corals and kills them FAST. Follow what he said and you're good

    Majano sold as Tulip anemones, can look very nice. But can over run a tank fast.

    I bet the new fish was a Naoko wrasse (their the most amazing wrasse ever with a huuuge personality and we found that out after only 2 days of having it) buuuut we cant have a peppermint shrimp cause we ain’t getting rid of it and not spending money we could use on other wrasse
    Edit: was not expecting that fish it looked like a naoko tho

  • @akhilennium

    I did that. Chipped of the rock it came in. No aiptasia for four years until another came along a frag and spread like wild fire killing many sps. Peppermints did the job. So far no aiptasia since 2 years

    • @jamiewood4280
      @jamiewood4280 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dog wormer. Seriously, but it will kill all worms and most snails too. Great for getting rid of clove polyps and xenia too!
