Aptasia

[paveni]

HELP!!! I have a 1 year old reef tank 90 gal 160 lb. live rock. Coral and about 8 fish. I am loaded with Aptasia. I have used afew different products all which must be injected. My problem is I can't reach many spots with a syringe and want to know if there is any fish which eats Aptasia or any other ideas.
Thanks Pat

Rumor has it that THESE will work on it.

Peppermint shrimp (2) in my 90 gal tank completely wiped out those in a matter of weeks. First the small ones , then all the big ones.

Good luck.

I had them bad also, put a couple peppermint shrimp in and they were all gone in 4 days.

I'll have to confirm what Docbob59 & mamonduke propose...I used Joe's Juice for several months. It does work, but is only a temporary fix for an ongoing problem. I purchased 3 peppermint shrimp and put them in my 100g and now I only know of one lone aiptasia. My peppermints are nocturnal though, and are rarely spotted during daylight hours, and only occasionally at night, but my Aiptasia problem is gone.
