I'll be right over.. Lol. I can't seem to find one that's eating though. I'd hate to chance it but maybe I could pass him along.

Parker,
Did you get the filefish from BWA? Ken told me somebody bought it when I went to the store. Bought myself a nice looking CBB. Hopefully it will help me getting rid of those aiptasias for good.

have to be patient. They don't go at it right away. They will eventually start to eat aptaisia. Mine took few weeks before it starts going at. Just make sure it eat prep food/mysis before you buy it.

These are all eating frozen quite well. Love aiptasia too, the one I took home cleaned my tank in a week

No, I already have a filefish. Had it for months and it hasn't touched a one, this is my second one that didn't eat them. I picked up a CBB while I was there.

That was short a short lived experiment, the CBB was dead this morning.

Sorry to hear that..they are such beautiful fish.

the only thing that is 100% effective is a berghia as it is all that they eat,and i have tried everything except for a filefish-a bannerfish also eats them,but again its hit or miss

Introducing a copperband in a newly established aquarium would be a bad idea, right?

I feel like I'm also losing the aptasia battle. I need a solution before things get to out of hand here. Lemon juice ain't cutting it anymore.

Aptasia X?
