Aiptasia

Morgan , are copperbands considered reef-safe or not? Regards

You have to get a big copperband or else it may not work....the fish IMO has to be more than 3" before they are able to tackle those big aiptasia.

Got my fish from yazid, it cleared away my few aiptasia within a few days. He trained the fish very well....to the extend of being very tame and can be hand feed with shrimps .

Let me know if you intend to loan your copperband out for a few weeks....

BTW, keen to know whether those reefers that have bought the peppermints from ML on their success in getting them to feed on aiptasia????

Good question. I've read that some Peppermint just can't be bothered with aiptasia.

For me, I have not personally seen them tearing one apart, but my aiptasia problems seems to be gone ( can't find any now) since I added them. The answer is clear

Got 1 swimming in my reef tank.

It is not safe with tube worms or shrimps and may bother clams if you are unlucky.

Gheez, never had any problem with aiptasia

've got three peppermint from ml. they're definitely not clearing my aiptasia.

I think copperband is a better and cheaper choice but the problem is getting them to eat other food after the aiptasia are gone.

Actually i found aiptaisa rather nice and cute with its flowery pattern, but too bad that it contain powerful sting
