Hello there,
I'm pretty new to saltwater and am looking for suggestions.
I have freshwater tanks at home and a humongous reef tank at work,which made me want to set up my own 25 gallons at home too.
Anyways we are hiring someone for the maintenance at work, but the guy has definitely not been doing a great job recently, and my friend whose been reefing for years pointed some red flags about his work. The guy brought back aiptasia on some frags a few months ago, and hasn't been trying to take care of the aiptasia plague that followed. We got a filefish and peppermint shrimps that took care of most of the small ones but won't touch the 2 inches ones.
I'm planning to take over maintenance of that 500 gallons + and am trying find solutions to control aiptasia. My biggest issue is that the tank is so big and so deep that I can't reach the bottom where the big anemone pests are. I can't pull the rocks. I can reach them to nuke them with Aiptasia X. I've heard about the "majano wand", do you think it would be a good temporary solution to nuke the big ones? Or do you have any other option that I can should consider?
Thanks
Elsa
