WTB aptasia eating.....Anything
I have a Aptasia problem in a breading tank.I do not want to disturb the tank in any way{my clowns will stop laying}.So I was thinking aptasia eating nuddys.Does anyone have a few I could buy.I am also willing to order them.This is a closed system{no skimmer no sump} so kalk and joe's juice are not an option.

Peppermint shrimp has worked for me (or is that bad for the babies?). But you know a lot more about this than I do.

I've had great success with the peppermint shrimp from reeftopia. The peppermint shrimp I got from eTropicals however sucked. They were the clear ones that IME don't eat aptasia.
Not sure if they will disturb the clowns though??

Get pepermint shrimp. And they should all eat them. Just need to be patient and cut back feeding. When they get hungry, they will eat them.

I've gotten berghia from berghia.net and salty underground. Was pleased with both orders.

The peppermints I've gotten from LivingSea have always been great aiptasia eaters.

What do you use though if you have a fish or fishes in teh tank that will eat the peppermint shrimp?
copper band butterflies are hit and miss when it comes to eating apstasia IMO. So what do you suggest then for natural elimination of Apsatasia?
