Ok so I went and got myself an Aiptasia Eating Filefish today to help get rid of some nuisances. I know the horror stories and will be watching for coral nipping.
I've read through reviews and fish "profiles" on websites and everything I've found says they work well in flow and I don't have a ton of flow (125 gallon with 2 2100 gpm powerheads - one at each end) but when I added him, he went to th back glass and latched onto a piece of coralline algae and is just sitting there kind of rustling in the "breeze".
Does anyone have any experience with higher flow and Filefish or do I need to take the main aiptasia rock and the Filefish and sump them?
I've zapped the Aiptasia multiple times and instead of dying I end up with more each time so I figure this was necessary.
