Don't feel bad, I just found a couple of pieces in my tank, they are smart, its growing around a couple of big corals. when you figure out how to get rid of it without hurting anything else let me know..

 

[Pufferreefer]

It's a small piece ... I'm getting the blow torch now ... Pics to follow ..

+1 on the peppermint shrimp cure from Sealife. They work great. Was going to try some Berghia Nudibranch, but that fell through so no reviews on their possible performance.

 

[reeferkeeper420]

Yeah i think peppermint are my next attempt. But i need like 4 or 5 lol.

 

[Pufferreefer]

Blow torch ... Instant results ...lol

I started off with one aiptasia, I stupidly Cut..... it out.... in a month I had about... 50...... I got 3 peppermint shrimp,,, In about 3 days I had no Aiptasia... then My Cardinalfish at all my peppermint shrimp over the next month..... but the aiptasia hasn't come back at all.. over a year now...

As much as I like the torch idea, I tend to use Kalk paste.

 

[heath]

did the cardinals eat the shrimp, if so that's out for me, I have a cardinal in the tank. Crap I like the fire idea but my luck I would set the house on fire..
