What FISH for aptasia control?

[reefarchitect]

I have a 180 gallon mixed reef with lots of LPS, SPS, Leathers, Zoos and Clams. I also have an aptasia problem.

I've had luck with Peppermints in the past, but they do not survive one night with my mystery wrasse amongst others.

I had a CBB for a year, but after eating all of the aptasia and regular feedings of mysis (all he would eat), he passed away.

I dont know much about the Burghia Nudi's or where to get them

As for fish, are there any choices other than CBBs? I would hate to keep killing them for a temporary solution.

Thanks,

I have a similar issue right now. I have several aptasia that are not surrendering to Joe's Juice, I just added 3 peppermint shrimp but I know that if I transfer my Mystery wrasse he will kill them. I don't want to try a CBB for the same reason you just quoted, and I have no experience with Berghia.

But, I do know a place where you can obtain them, try the link below.

Thanks for the link. If I decide to give them a try, its nice to have a resource.

These are much cheaper. They are right down the street from me. It is a great store with very good customer service..

My copper banded butterfly worked wonders on them. Its acting a bit strange at the moment swimming back and forth along the glass. But the Aptasia is gone.
