Proven aptaisia eaters

[orcafood]

Are there any proven reef safe aptasia eating fish?

Iwas told to try a lemon peel angle. After a week in my 220 no aptasia in my tank.

Copper banded butterfly I have heard....

I had good luck with a racoon butterfly

Yes, a racoon butterfly will eat them like popcorn. It will also eat a lot of corals. Copperbanded butterfly fish sometimes eat them, sometimes not. Sometimes they also eat corals. Sometimes they don't eat anything. Berghia nudibranchs eat them always.

Wow, lemon peel angels worked for you? nice
Yeah, I was trying to stay away from the butterfly's.

How would berghias fare in my 90g?

Aiptasia x by red sea gets rid of them well. They take it like candy and die. check out their website and see the video http://redseafish.com/show_movie.asp?product=296&type=high

Other than fish, peppermint shrimp do.
