Thank you. Some of the prettiest fish are butterflies. It’s so unfortunate most aren’t reef safe.

I think it’s so cool how you got the berghia to lay eggs. I can’t wait until they start demolishing those pesky aiptasia.

How fast did the aiptasia multiply in your tank? I saw a patch beside one of your corals.
Very quick. I didn't add the live rock they were on til about the 1 month mark, and now at 4 months, it has taken over my tank. My nutrients were and are very high, so I think that is the main reason as to why they were able to take over so quick.

I don’t think it’s your fault at all. Aiptasia grows fast for everyone. They are very good at catching food from the water column.

Those berghias will work fantastically.
