For sale: ORA aiptasia eating filefish...4 of them!

[Jamie1210]

These 4 are all ORA, purchased from liveaquaria divers den last month. I bought them to help combat an insane aiptasia problem and they definitely got the job done! Aiptasia was cleared in a few weeks. They're super hardy and even eat flakes.

They did not bother my sps, zoas, euphyllias, rock anemones, mushrooms, but did nibble on my acans.

Asking $20 each for ORA disease free, flake-eating, proven aiptasia-eating file fish. Or take them all for 60!

Currently captured and ready to go! Here are some pics. Lights are off so their colors look dark and mottled as opposed to their usual gray.

Pickup in Alhambra. Thanks!

Jamie, you might think about keeping one in case some aiptasia starts up again

Are you going to the club meeting this Friday? If so, can bring one? I will take it.

Any idea if the filefish will go after blastos? Do they taste the same as acans? LOL

 

[dodgerblew]

Jamie, have you seen all four going after the fleshy lps? Maybe one of them doesn’t touch them

Thanks for the interest guys but they were all sold tonight. Ive been super busy past few days and did not have time to update this fs thread like i usually do.

In the end, with all 4 in the same tank, i really couldnt tell them apart! But i do know that there were at least 2 hovering around my acans at all times. Ugh. I dont have blastos so at least im safe there! Haha

Plus, these guys were HARD to catch! I have no reefing patience for fish traps, etc. and decided to use this oppurtunity to rescape! In short, I destroyed my tank. :0 and redid everything ...which reminds me, must update tank thread soon!

Again, thanks for looking u guys!
