Aptasia Stings
I have got the ich problem in my tank under control and am not going to begin a battle with aptasia. I have one that grabs hold of anything that I feed the tank and is getting bigger now that I have started calcium dosing. I have found four small ones coming, all directly downstream from the large one. I will get a syringe and try injecting with vinegar or high calcium. I have heard bad things about Joe's Juice as far as spreading them out.
My question is... my powder brown is looking better from it's ich, white spots are minimal but it is getting red spots on its sides. It seems that the right side is worse which is the one that would be against the big aptasia when sitting in the current from one outlet, which I have seen it do. I was just wondering if these are irritation marks from all the cleaner shrimp activity or if the aptasia is stinging it.
Thanks
Mike
