Here was my infected 180. 20 berghia nudi’s cleared every last one but it took 3 months to do so.

The new file fish knows his business, the tiny CBB is steadily picking at the smallest of the aiptasia. And I added two peppermint shrimp into the sump. Hopefully they avoid the intakes, if not it’ll be my worst $20 spent.

I put 4 of them in my tank - never saw them again!

Fearful my harlequin basslet would make them a quick meal, I put an aiptasia covered rock in the sump and let the peppermints at it. They stay well away from thr rock. the flow doesn't bother them at all. I do worry about the intakes.
