aiptaisa

Selling adult aiptasia-eating nudibranchs in New Jersey. They will wipe out aptasia in your tank.

I’m wondering if I ordered berghias and placed about 5 different rocks in side tank to have them breed and place them all around the main tank if the population would manage to clean the aiptasia before the wrasse kills them off.

Hey everyone, I'm in the process of upgrading my reef aquarium and wanted to share my current setup, the issues I'm facing, and my thoughts on moving forward. Current setup: I currently have an approximately 120-gallon aquarium with an over-the-back overflow system. It's functional, but my...

Got this great laser that is wrecking aiptasia. Love that it plugs in! Figured I’d share my fun. Here are some videos of it doing damage.

Hi All, How you doing? Can you help me ID these 2 things? First pic I think is a little happy family of aiptasias waiting to be obliterated (I’m quite sure they are but i never saw a thing like that) Second Pic could be my Pocillopora having “babies”? If not I Don’t know what It could be...

Should I worry about these guys? Is it aiptasia? They don’t look quite the same and are staying rather small. Thanks!

Hi everybody, I set up and started (4 days ago) My first reef, today i noticed this 3 things, what are they? Are they “reef safe”? (Last pic i reefer to the “eyebrows” coming out of the rock). Thanks everyone, and nice to meet you all!

In a couple months I’ll be moving all of the coral and iverts along with my one fish from my fluval evo 13.5g to my 65g where I have my other fish. I do not plan on moving any rock over from there though as I started with fresh dry rock in my 65g and I want to avoid hitchhikers in that tank...

i have seen to found some hitchhikers under my corals. Do you guys have any idea what it is and how to get rid of it.

I will likely be downsizing my reef tank at some point in the near future and setting up a fresh tank that isn’t as pest ridden. but I’d really like to be able to reuse my corals and any possible rock as well. My tank has it bad it has Horrible Aiptasia, Bubble algea, Bryopsis and I’m pretty...

Hi All, So, I have a clam shell that is completely covered in Zoa's which looks great, HOWEVER, it's also home to some mean Aiptasia that I can't seem to kill with superglue or Lemon juice. It seems to be the only place in my display tank that I have seen any Aiptasia. I have a peppermint and...

Hi, as you can see in the photo, there are 2 orange anemones that have appeared in my tank, i noticed one about 4 months ago but it appears to have moved and now another one has appeared, my concerns is if its Aiptasia or another pest. Any ideas and what i can do to remove if needed.

What's your favorite natural aiptasia eradication method?! I had one peppermint shrimp in a 75 gallon that disappeared and shortly after the aiptasia started to reappear. I'm thinking of trying a Copperband but have heard too many unsuccessful stories And I don't find the filefish to be the...

I will be moving long distance (Nebraska to Texas) next month. I have a 35gal reef tank. 2 clowns, a bengai cardinal, starfish, snails and some rather large coral on my live rock. I also have Aiptasia on my live rock again! I had purchased a pile of nudies and everything cleared up for about 6-9...

Hi, all, Several months ago, I set up an experiment to deal with elevated nutrients in DT, added an HOB filled with chaeto and a light. The experiment doesn’t seem to have worked; phosphates still ungodly high but stable and as a bonus, I found the algae had been home to aiptasia (yay). I...

Black Aiptasia? Hi everyone. I found this on an empty shell stuck in a leather I purchased last weekend then another today on the base of another leathers rock, despite scrubbing with a toothbrush for ages. Is it aiptasia, it had a nem type foot, didn't retract easily when I rolled the shell...

Found this interesting looking this growing on one of my frags. Not sure if its Aiptasia or something else. Appreciate the help!

As the title suggests, over the span of 5 months or so my tank has been covered by aiptasia, so much so that ive even noticed some have interesting flecks of colours in them on top of the horrid brown colour that they are. Anyways I think one of the reasons for the massive outbreak is I feed...

Hello fellow reefers, I need help with a identifying if this hairy growth on my acropora since day 1 and I ignored and now at the base which seems like algae. The zoa has something different, has had these since day 1 (removed with tweezers) and grew back. Not sure if hydroids or aiptasia...

I noticed these guys the other day on a piece of rock. They sort of look like GSP but they don’t have the purple crust like GSP and they are more white with a very light hint of green on the tips of the tentacles I do have GSP in my tank and they are sort of similar to the smaller ones I can...

So I let my 65 Gallon Reef go... aiptasia took over and killed nearly all my coral except some GSP. But my fish are doing well and tonight I began rehabilitating my reef. I started with cleaning everything spot clean -my sump, skimmer, glass...etc. I got a large rubbermaid garbage can on...

Hey everyone, I was wondering if anyone could identify this species. It’s currently 1-2 mm in size and was found in saltwater taken from the Indian river for analytical testing. It appears to be eating (and stinging) artemia, and is growing quickly in 20% saltwater Thank you!
