Man my tank must be too full of more delicious food than aiptasia. I bought four from Kevin after watching them destroy one that he fed them.

My aiptasia problem has gotten way worse since then. Maybe there's just too many for them to make a dent.

I forgot to mention that I cut back my feedings to every 3 days as well.
Also cut my daytime lighting back to 8 hours, instead of 10.
They did the job for me.

3 Peppermints and injecting the big ones with Lemon juice and I haven't seen aptasia since

Even with just the shrimp alone, they will do all the work and you won't have to stress out waging war.
