I added two dozen of them about two weeks ago, and they've made virtually no progress. I've seen them pick on one or two, but that's it. For the past 3 days I've only fed the fish once in the morning, and that's it.
I can see them running all over the tank like crazy little headless chickens at night, but they don't seem to take much interest in the Aiptasia. I figured with two dozen of them, ordered from different vendors, I was pretty safely hedging my bets.
What the heck is going on? Does it take them some time to settle in before they start going to town? Should I stop feeding completely? Do my Aiptasia just taste bad? Are Peppermints such a hit or miss solution that I had the bad luck to miss 24 times in a row?
These little anemones are REALLY starting to annoy me.
Given the luck I've had thus far (managed to create a multi-hundred Aiptasia infestation out of two of them by using chemical "control", Berghias did nothing after 3 months, and now this), I'm somewhat hesitant to add a filefish, as I'm fairly sure it would eat absolutely every other coral in my tank before it even contemplated going near my Aiptasia.
