SuncrestReef Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 After several months without aiptasia, they have returned. And this time, they’ve figured out transportation! They’re probably working on weapons for the next iteration. 😬 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll need to train some nudibranchs to ride seahorses. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manny Tavan Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 So what’s you plan of attack? If there is only one, it would be easy to take it out the tank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is only one, it would be easy to take it out the tank We all know there is no such thing as "only one" aiptasia in a tank. I removed the snail from the tank and manually removed the aiptasia with tweezers and a toothbrush before putting it back. But I also found one on my return nozzle and another on the back wall so I zapped those with my laser. I'm certain I'll start discovering more in the next few weeks, and if the population gets large enough then I'll buy some more nudibranchs. But for now there aren't enough aiptasia to support a nudibranch population. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
