The MarineDepot newsletter had 3 similar products listed; Joe's Juice,
Chem-Marin, and the Blue Life. Joe's Juice actually had a higher
rating, but my local LFS don't carry them.


I usually use Joe's Juice. It rarely kills them the first time, but a good
dose on a large one will make it much smaller and clear, and sometimes kill
them. I mostly use it to target-attack aiptasias that are threatening my
show corals.


So far, the Blue Life is working, and it's a one-shot deal. I, too,
targetted the buggers closest to my corals, and (and this is only the
3rd day, so I'm going to continue to be very cautious) the corals
seems to be opening up more (as is the clam which had quite a few
of the little rascals around them.)

Not from San Francisco, are you?


Nearby. On the peninsula. The hills above San Mateo.


Did you used to do Brazilian Jiu Jitsu?
