I missed the swap so I was unable to get together with 2far to get some but I have had enough with these aptasia. Does anyone know a good place to get some? Preferably reputable and cheap, lol, I know usually they don't go together.
Looking for berghias

Hi Guys,
It seems my Nudis are on a slight standstill,, They must sense the quantity of Aiptasia slowed down, so they stopped breeding.. I'm gradually trying to get a nice breeding rack/tanks setup so I can get them jump started again.
They are beasts when it comes to eating Aiptasia... If I can get a batch out of them soon, I'll let ya'll know!
Just to get an idea of the appetite, I watched a single large fully grown Berghia (over an inch long) totally devour a medium sized Aiptasia (base around 1/2") in less then 5 minutes.... You can imagine how hard it is to keep these things going!!
On a side note, If anyone is willing to part with some Aiptasia, we may be heading down to the Appleton Area next month, we can do some trading if interested!!
Anyways, if your ever over on the Madison Area Reef Society Forums look up 'MM' he usually has some Berghia's. A great guy to deal with! I've gotten some from him in the past...

I just had 6 peps disappear as well. I have baby aptasia popping up all over. I could definitely use one of these!

me as well how much are they going for??? my peps just keep literally walking out of my tank. i dont have many nems, but my goal is to have none. if you come down on a saturday, aquatic imports usually has tons of nems in his tanks. im sure he wouldnt mind giving some up. its funny ive never seen anyone asking for apistasia before. pets plus is also a good place to find nems.

Awesome guys!!
Ya, I definitely get really odd looks when I ask for Aiptasia, or if I see some in a tank, tell them I want them!!
The phone calls are the best... The last store I called, and I asked if they had any Aiptasia, he almost cut me off saying 'No! Who told you that!'
Like I said, I'd really like to get these going, heck I've even traded Berghia for Aiptasia, just to keep them going.. But they've really slowed down....
I'll have to get started on the new breeding setup soon....
