Rebooting from Aptastia infested tank

[Darwin stinton]

Hello, I'm about ready to move fish from an Aptastia infested tank. Is there a treatment for this? I will also be removing corals into seperase Frag tank and was wondering if there is a dip for this?

Hello, I'm about ready to move fish from an Aptastia infested tank. Is there a treatment for this? I will also be removing corals into seperase Frag tank and was wondering if there is a dip for this?

Are you referring to treatment for fish/coral diseases? Or dips and/or a cure for Aptasia?

I'm asking about any dips for the fish, as I was wondering if the Aptasia spore could be sitting on the fish. As I don't want it to spread into the new rebuild water.
Secondly i'm moving my coral into a frag tank and I don't want to spread it there either. I will not be moving any rock, the coral will be removed from that.

Why not buy some berghia nudibranch or an aiptasia eating Filefish?

I have never heard of dips for algae prevention to be honest. As long as your not using the same water and you try and minimize the amount of water from your old system getting into the new system you should be fine.

I noticed most of the aiptasias comes on a hard surface like rocks, frag plugs. I believe it would be difficult to attach on to fish slime coat. In case you get an outbreak get a peppermint shrimp. I've had great success eradicating aiptasias, it's like candy to them.
