You can get a syringe at any pharmacy - just ask for an insulin
syringe and needle.

They are pesky little things. If there are any little bits of them
left, they will grow back and/or multiply. The method that worked for
me: siphon them out. Get a long piece of 1/2 ribid tubing, cut the
tip at an angle, hook it up to some flex tube, and start some siphon
action going. Suck that little bugger right off the rock. And then
get in there with the end of the hose and try to scrape off and suck
out any leftovers. I took care of three this way, and knock on wood
they have not been back in months...

Ok, so it first started with one Aipitasia. I thought I killed it with
strong Kalk because it melted away into nothing. Then it came back a few
days later. In the same spot. Now I have three in the reef tank. I have
applied pure kalk powder to all three via a wet Q-tip and they melt into
nothingness only to reappear in a few days. I can't locate a needle syringe
to inject them. I even tried sticking them with a thin copper wire ( read
this solution on a news group ) and that was almost useless. I tried to find
some Berghia Nudibranchs ( they eat Aipitasia ) on-line, but couldn't find
any source that has them in stock. I guess I should try peppermint shrimps.
Anyone have a proven answer to get rid of these pests? Does injecting work?
If so, where do you get the needle? Will peppermint shrimps work? Help?
