Default Apistasia Wimp

Peppermint shrimp are supposed to eat aiptasia. The problem is sometimes
there are tastier foods in the tank.

I have one aiptasia, inside a cave on the unreachable bottom of the tank.
Still deciding between the copperband which might not work and the shrimp
who eventually will be eaten by my large sweetlips.

Tough call.

I'm wondering if I could use a power head and a hose to vaccum the aiptasia
out......


Good luck,

Ruben

Hey people,

I went out and got the Joes Juice--- But I just cant bring myself to stab
these suckers. I realize we are playing G*D with a host of organisms on a
regular basis----but this is`nt detached like just pouring in some

additive.
How bad can the Apistasia thing get?
Is there a more passive way of getting rid of these critters?
Maybe a natural predator?
My Copperband never took a bite,
