Hello. I'm Jason. Have been in the hobby off and on for 20 years. Current setup is 55 gallon with some soft corals, several RBTA's, a huge 4 year old petco maroon clown, a Royal Gramma (several years old) and a small yellow tang that's maybe a year old. About to upgrade to a 280 gallon pond liner indoor lagoon which everything will go in to. Also, have a new powder brown tang and small maroon in QT which will join the rest in the 280.

Where are you located?
I'd be interested in the cleaner shrimp and ricordia if you still have them and they aren't too far away.

For any coral you have if you are not too far away except green zoas or anemones. These are taking over my tank and need to be thinned.

What else do you have? I'm in Washougal also and might be interested in corals or other fish depending.
Eradicating aptasia

On the subject of aiptasia. Outside of their rapid proliferation and appearance, what harm do they do? My bta's have expanded and moved over time and the aiptasia have retreated out of the way, my soft corals xenia and kenya tree grow right in the midst of them, and my star polyps just grow right over them. They don't seem to be effecting my frogspawn or hammer. I've not yet had a coral/fish suffer from aiptasia stings and I have a bunch of them. I have used peppermint shrimp in the past which do an ok job but don't seem to live long in my system. I'm considering a separate setup with a filefish that I can put rocks in and remove when aiptasia is gone. Just curious what kind of corals do they actually bother, or is everyone else just wanting them gone because they are kind of ugly?
