Hello my name is Morgan and I am fascinated with the ocean, marine animals, ect. So of course my husband and I invest in a saltwater tank. It's only about 3 weeks going. 55 gallons. We have some live rock a huge mushroom and 2 clown fish. Im very excited to see where this goes. Be prepared for lots of questions.!

Tips on removing Aipstasia anenome ??

 

[kschweer]

Welcome to R2R!!! How many aptasia to you have? If just a few you can cover them with a dab of superglue gel.

 

[Oscaror]

Berghia nudibranch is the only 100% effective way

... another option is boiling hot RO/DI water, large syringe, tube on the end of it... squirt the hot water via the syringe down the tube directly onto the pest.

There's a fairly large one and tiny ones are starting to sprout what seems like everywhere.

If that's all either try the superglue gel or boiling water. Best of luck!

It's a small invert who's diet consists solely of aptasia.

Matted filefish will eat them too, the berghia nudibranch, aipstasia is it's only food source.
