Hello all,

I am ready to give my sump a good cleaning. There is a lot of detritus and calcium build up not to mention the many aiptasia. I was wondering what would work to make sure the aiptasia were eliminated. Could I use vinegar and water or citrus/water and let things soak?

Aiptasia sucks. Only thing I ever got to rid them for good was my Nudibranch.

I tried Nudibranchs once and did not see any relief from Aiptasia.

Could try some peppermint shrimp. Aptasia X is the only chemical I believe that really gives good results. I personally tried lemon juice and other things on mine and it didn’t work.
