Aiptasia‑X

No matter what you start with. You’ll end up using berghia nudibranchs If you want to eradicate the aptasia. There not cheap but they work.

Ok sounds good, I'll probably get the aipstatia x , since it's at my LFS and the only box, same price as online...I figure better to have it than not.

A dozen of them cost an arm and a leg, lol $23 per in Canada

I’ve always had success with Aiptasia-X. However, I’ve only ever used it on up to 10 or so aiptasia at a time. The key is to turn of all the flow in the tank and make sure that you slowly approach the oral disc with the applicator. Then, let the aiptasia wrap it’s tentacles around the applicator. Slowly apply the formula and wait about 30 min. to turn the pumps back on.

Honestly I have yet to find a product, fish/invert that gets them completely gone. Hate them!

Yes, that's what I used in my tank. Just make sure you put them in the center quickly before they close so it will kill them off.

Unfortunately that's about $250-300 worth of nudis so a tough pill to swallow. Honestly the only thing that got rid of my aiptasia problem was shutting the tank down entirely and restarting. And that came with some heavy dipping and scrubbing along with qt for my corals. The nudis might have worked but there were none available at the time.

Other fish will help the problem but will NEVER get rid of them entirely...

F-aptasia works great and lasts much longer then x-aptasia in that it forms a hard shell. You have to be careful as it can coral that it touches, whereas x-aptasia is more gentle.
