I have a copper banded butterfly and it doesnt touch any corals.
Biggest problem with him was buying it. It took a couple of months to
find one that looked healthly and eats frozen food.
Had him for 6 moths now and the aiptasia is gone. Only think I have
noticed in my tank since getting him is that along with the aiptasia
being gone, i dont see any pods anymore, or i should say I see a lot
less then i use to.
I should add that i had tried various treatments including the hot
water and was never able to rid my tank. It is a 92 gal with a 30 gal
sump.

What is the easiest and best way to get rid of aiptisia.
I tried injecting boiling hot water it didn't work. I tried injecting

them
with kalk. That seems to work but I have a lot of them. I can't try
butterfly fish because I have multiple corals. I was going to try

peppermint
shrimp. But I have a hawkfish I heard they eat the shrimp. I heard of

joe's
juice not sure of it. Vinegar ? All this requires injection. There

are too
many. Any other suggestions?
