View Full Version : Looking for an Austrian Copperband

I was told by the LFS that the Australian Copperband Butterfly is the fish to get for Aptasia control. I know that Peppermint shrimp also eat Aptasia, but the lizard Blenny that my 2 year old son loves, eats shrimp, so that does not work.

Would anybody be able to help me out with a small copperband? I live in the San Fernando Valley. The LFS has one in stock for $70, which is too high for me.

Thanks,

Don

Jeff's gets them every once in a while. I got mine at Reef Collection 2 years ago and paid $30 for it.

Aquarium City in Canoga Park had one last time I was in there. The price was $35 I think which is a bit steep.

Aquarium city had two of the non-austrilian copperbandeds and only one of the australian guys and he was the one that was 70 bucks.

Konadog, who is "jeff" Maybe i could get one from him.

If you can get the one in Aquarium City to jump to the next little tank it will be cheaper. :D

I have a non-Australian CBB, and it took care of the aptasia problem.
