these are my favoritesMy favorites, in order: Paris == Vienna, Miami, Nicaragua, Cioccolatino. So help me, if I get one of those coconut-flavored ones, I'm putting your desk in the basement!
Wait, do I have any authority to do that?

The truth is I've been thinking about it and I was looking at one in Kraken Lid but it costs more than 200 dollars, But now I'm going to have to buy it, I don't want to lose another fish that way.
guess just have to do it like this...
This is exactly what I use on top of my lid. It's cheap and effective.Thanks, that's awesome, looking into this right now! I lost my fairy wrasse through the screen a couple months ago and looking into smaller screens or acrylic lids before I get any more wrasses.
With a tank that size, you could hit them with boiling water as well. I just use a feeder pipette, load it with boiling water, get real close to the mouth and shoot it right into them. Tricky part is when they are super close to your corals.I am going to ask a question you may not know the answer too, but I am so eager to get this aiptasia out if my tank. About how long would it take for a starting number of 3 berghia nudibranch to get rid of my aiptasia infestation?
Yep, I have tried that. It worked, but there are too many now so I got berghias. Too many in hard to reach spaces.With a tank that size, you could hit them with boiling water as well.

Thanks. That's pretty crazy. Hope that is the same for mine!The 3 I had ate a large Aiptasia in the jar with them in a matter of an hour and a half.
Thanks. It was hard to get pictures, but they only show a few. Alot are not in the picture.It'd likely be fast for a tank your size and the few Aiptasia you have visible.
I have read that it is quite certain that berghia nudibranch will end apstasia but it may take 2 or 3 months from what I have read in other threadsI am going to ask a question you may not know the answer too, but I am so eager to get this aiptasia out if my tank.

Depends on how many Berghia and how much Aiptasia.I have read that it is quite certain that berghia nudibranch will end apstasia but it may take 2 or 3 months from what I have read in other threads
I put two peppermint shrimp in my 20 and all aiptasia was gone in a matter of days.I am going to ask a question you may not know the answer too, but I am so eager to get this aiptasia out if my tank.

I love Peppermint Shrimp but... Halichoeres Wrasses do too. I tried Berghia and they seemed to be doing good but Halichoeres Wrasses happened...I put two peppermint shrimp in my 20 and all aiptasia was gone in a matter of days.
I had one the size of a quarter no joke and that one I squirted with hot water and as it was dying/getting out of its hole, they ate that too.
Never seen anything like it before.
They are incredibly efficient cleaners too.
This is my first experience with them.
Yeah plus one Tim!I love Peppermint Shrimp but... Halichoeres Wrasses do too. I tried Berghia and they seemed to be doing good but Halichoeres Wrasses happened...
Yeah, that is what I first wanted to do. Upon doing further research, getting real peps are difficult. I don't trust either of my LFS and I don't know who to trust on line. The the infestation got worse so I pulled the trigger and got nudibranchs from Dinkins.

Yup, hence my hesitation. I only have 3 right now that I can see, but I'm sure there are aiptasia in areas I can't get to that are spreading them around when I'm not looking. I might try some Berghia with the Dinkins GC if they get any, but seems too risky to drop cash on them with the Halichoeres chrysus and the leopard--not to mention the pinkies that might like a nibble.I love Peppermint Shrimp but...
