Joes Juice
 
USELESS!!1

took lots of time today shooting the vile little bastages with joes, i was quite happy at seeing them shrinking up. just checked tank with flashlight and they are back and looked ****ed off. i think they brought back some buddies this time.

save your money this stuff is crap.

My experience with it is this:

I've used it several times and they 'consume' it like the bottle says and the aiptaisias shrivel up and dissapear for a week or so.....then sometimes they come back and look really ****ed, sometimes that one is dead but another smaller one has budded, sometimes the polyp dies and there are several in to replace it, and sometimes it comes back with buddies. I think you need a pepermint shrimp that east aiptasia to get them when they are comming back.

I have used this stuff at home and the store and found it works great 99% of the time,they come back once in a while but other than a peppermint or copperband what else can you do,injecting them with kalk or hot water is one giant pain in the arse,and doesnt work that much better.

Injecting them with boiling water is free and effective. :mrgreen:

Did you try stiring the bottle before use? I find it settles out like Liquid Reactor. It makes a big difference.

They came back for me as well. The boiling RO works much better if you can get at the suckers.

Really?? Mine worked like a charm . . . Had no probs with it . . . (I used it onced and aiptasia never came back) . . .

I agree this stuff is junk, it works for a week then they come back twice as big and twice as many. Next up is boiling water.

Did the boiling water work?
