hey
we just picked up some frags from this guy and we notcied there are a couple AIPTASIA on them... how do we get rid of this without spreading?? can we pluck them out?? what do we do!!!!

[jennmac415]

try injecting them right in the mouth with hot boiling water or lemon juice...

[SteveNMegz]

they are right in the middle of zoanthid colonies though, injecting boiling water or lemon juice might kill the zoas, wouldn`t it

[jennmac415]

can you take the new zoas out of the tank to do it? that way, if it runs a little you can stop it with a paper towel or something...

Taking it out of the water isn't a bad idea. If you are very careful, even in the water, you should be able to squirt a tiny amount into it's mouth without hurting the surrounding zoas too bad.
