here's a helpful graph. Often you hear people saying they put Berghia into their tank and they believe they're gone/dead but suddenly one day, months later, their Aiptasia begin to disappear and they see tons of Berghia out of no where. Shortly there after, the Aiptasia are all gone and then the Berghia crash & perish.

If you look at this graph (Green curve), see how the population stays low until exponential growth get into large numbers. For my tank, this is happening now 3.5 months after the introduction of 9 individuals in a 27 gallon tank. This can take even longer depending on your Aiptasia density, tank size, habitat available for settlement, skimmers, predators of Berghia etc.

I do expect them to crash soon in my tank when the last Aiptasia are gone... they eat nothing else.

by way of mention, for you dooms-day-ers... humans & earth follow this same exponential growth curve. Buy these berghia before the world ends. Thanks.

Just thought about putting this:

If anyone like me wants to split, I would like to take 5.

I've caught 6 more overnight. darkreef has not responded to PM, so... first $60 in hand gets them. Need gone ASAP, I now have zero Aiptasia left. Thanks for understanding the no holds request due to the no food circumstance.

the original 10 are gone.

another 13 or 15 went last night as well.

the additional 6 are pending.

if you still want some and can pick up ASAP, drop me a PM, I'm going hunting tonight with my flashlight. I might be able to find a few for you.
