ricordia compatibility?

[vt_snowman87]

is ricordea compatible with cleaner shrimps, clowns, and firefish goby??

will it harm fishes with stings? what can it go with?

 

[SAPseven]

nope .. i got cleaners and clowns .. they dont bother them.

only thing a ric might hurt is another coral if allowed to touch it, and even then the ric might lose the battle

 

[akrimmel]

no worries!!

hehe, thanks guys!

what about fishes that goes with ricordia?
recently had a tuff of aipstasia that grows out from a live rock.. trying to find a fish that eats it, but won't harm the ricordias, and mushrooms..

can't really find peppermints in my region.. but butterflies are available though.. suggestions???? before my aipstasia overgrows my tank..

just hit it with some RO/Kalkwasser mixed up in a syringe....that will do the trick.

i was told a foxface will eat them, but I think the shrimp are the best way to go

You might want to try berghia nudibranches - that is what I used and I have not seen even a little baby aiptasia in well over six months. They only eat aiptasia - not mushrooms, zoas, or anything else.

I had good luck w/Peppermint shrimp -- got four of them and the aiptasia was all gone w/in days.
