Welcome. As you are learning you need a lot of Aiptasia to maintain a colony of Berghia. Depending on your project budget, you can purchase Aiptasia from VWR or Carolina Biological-if you are a postdoc at MIT I would assume you have grant support. The aiptasia will grow faster near 80 degrees and with heavy feeding. You can reduce the Berghia temperature to around 67 degrees (maybe lower but that is as low as I have tried) and significantly reduce their metabolism/growth/feeding requirement until you are able to achieve an Aiptasia surplus.

Thank you for the tips! Yeah, Carolina and VWR are out of stock for Aipatiasia. The orders are back ordering
