Cursed Aiptasia!

[lingwendil]

I just started a new 3.5G, and come to find several aiptasia on my rocks! They've managed to infiltrate my 6.5G as well! Are there any effective household products/aquarium additives that I can inject them with? I have veterinary syringes and needles that I can stick them with. I have some Kent Superbuffer dKH that I could try, but is it worth it?

THESE CURSED BEASTS WILL NOT TRIUMPH OVER ME!

Please give me some ideas!

Yes The past few weeks they have been chillin in my tank as well and not really sure how to get em i grabed one with a pair of vice grips and it got through it

I have injected them with vinigar, so so results. I've mixed up kalk and shot them, worked better. The kalk paste is tougher, I used my wife's diabetic syringes and kalk paste kinda clogs them.

Then I found Joe's Juice. Just squirt it on the mouth of the aiptasia and let the things eat it. That has worked the best for me.

I seem to remember trying freshwater injections when I worked at an LFS a long time ago. But I don't remember if it worked or not.

i have 100% cured my aptasia, at least i haven't found any in the last 2 months. Buy a liquid medicine dispenser for babies (only a couple dollars). the opening is just big enough to squirt super concentrated kalk and small enough if doesn't leak out. 100% death rate with the concentrated kalk.

Yeah, the KALK should be about the consistency of paste. Not a 100% effective but pretty good.

I've also found Joe's Juice to be quite effective.

I just squirted 3 of them with an 18 g uage needle with boiling lemon
juice and I haven't seen them since.
