Thanx much,

Just mix a bit of Kalk with enough water to make a paste,not too thick tho.If you drip Kalk,the stuff that settles on the bottom of the container works just as well.When I had to use it,I just sucked some up in a Salifert syringe and shot it into the correct area.On a couple I had to reapply a second time,but that was it.

Okay, thanx. I want to get it concentrated enough to do the job, but at the same time avoid plugging the syringe. I hate that.

Cheers,

I tried Joes Juice. The aptaisia kept coming back. I tried conc. Kalk paste same result. finally in desperation I introduced a queen angel to the tank. In a couple of weeks no more aptaisia. She ate them all. Problem is she picks at yellow polyps and they will not open. Also same with starburst. If I have aptaisia in other tanks I transfer the rock for a day or two to the queen angel tank and then they are gone and I move the rock back to its original tank.
