for those who bought berghia nudis did they work?
 
just wondering if the berghia nudis from the recent group buy worked on getting rid of your aiptasia

I am on my 2nd cbb, but my ppt is a big time bully, keeps them in the corner until they starve

I have noticed several smaller aiptasia have disappeared. I saw one berghia 3 nights ago. Had more than doubled in size. I had added 2 peps a while back but never saw them again. Don't know if they survived or not. I do have a yellow coris wrasse in there (he's cleaning up the red planaria very well) but the berghia seem to be working even with him there.

I also have seen some smaller aiptasia recently disappearing. But I have never seen the 2 berghia since 20 minutes after putting them into my daughters nano.

Yes, the 3 I had worked for me, I saw them triple team on one. Since that, I haven't seen them, I hope they survived when my tank cracked, I hope to see them again.

thanks, I may try berghia nudis next

Saw another berghia tonight. It was almost as long as an eggcrate opening. At least tripled in size. Woot!

Elliott 01/10/2008 10:50 PM

so when your aiptasia is gone, they starve?

Philwd 01/10/2008 10:51 PM

yep. But I have quite a bit left. When I can't see anymore aiptasia I'll try and collect the ones I can to distribute.

Elliott 01/10/2008 10:56 PM

sounds good, I'll probably have an aiptasia propagation tank by then :lol:

shramj 01/11/2008 10:11 AM

I still have a few left also, I will let you know if I see anymore disappear. I think the nudis are the way to go. They took down one that had a head of about the size of a quarter, kinda like lumberjacks taking down a tree.

I am trying a Klien's Butterfly in one of my tanks that is borderline overrun with aptasia. I Put his in Wed. I'll keep Ya'll posted.
