alternatives to Aiptasia

[weaselslucks]

I've tried pepermint shrimp and joes juice twice and i still have 3 Aiptasia. not bad for a 75 gallon tank, but i don't want them to spread. is there anything else i could try?

Some here had a success with a copperband butterflyfish...but this guy should live in a large tank.

hmmm what about boiling water injected?

Just get another peppermint they are hit and miss.

i have had great luck w/ peppermints - just give them time

Will a peppermint and skunk get along?

[jjmg]

Skunks and peps should have no problems. Get a couple of peps, they are fairly cheap and fun to watch and even after your three aips are gone, a few will still show up for a while.

I haven't seen an aip in my tank for more than a year but keep a few peps to make sure.
