make sure have your maxi mini in the tank before anything else, cuz usually it stick to a rock work and will never move again. If you have your ric in the tank first, it will get stung by the maxi mini when the nem start moving around.
I also don't like to keep that many shrimps in the tank, I had exp with cleaner shrimp being aggressive and sexy shrimp will not have a chance. The maxi mini doesn't really pose a threat to the cleaner shrimp, I saw them dancing across my green carpet all the time for food.

sweet so possibly stay away from the cleaner, I have read the peppermint shrimp and sexys do well together and I will also be trying a few more maximinis as well as some more rics. They are starting to become something I really enjoy looking at in the tank

Tank running pefectly, transition was safe overall.
everything doing well, decided that I hate PC lighting and need to get some LEDS in there fast!
Here comes my wallet modular!~

Another thing though, is the dreaded Aiptasia. I believe I have one in my tank, and he is quite large!
about 1/2"-1" I dont see any other "babies"but Iam not 100% sure where else they may be.

I have shrimp and other corals, as well as 2 fish.
The shrimp are just sexy shrimp and are the same size as the Aiptasia, so they wont help.

Please and suggestions, I do have some coral dip but the rock the Aiptasia is on also is home to the Carpet nem (maximini). Will coral dipping get rid of this nasty bugger?

thanks for the help!

Get aptasia X. Works like charm and you can use it in water. Now that you have noticed one aptasia, it would be wise to have that in hand :P

BTW pics?

Ill try and post some today

Would you advise dosing the entire system or taking the rock out and dosing it seperately? and will the Atipsia X harm my maximini on the same rock?

AiptasiaX is not for dosing, you receive a syringe with it and you feed it directly to the Aiptasia and it will make them implode. Search Youtube for videos. Therefore, unless you feed it to anything else, you won't harm anything.
