Nuisance paly!

[miserkris]

has anyone tried hot water in syringe to kill nuisance paly?
How about super glue?

Will zapping with 12v,1a power work?
Thx

AptasiaX will work...

How many do you have?

 

[miserkris]

Have about say 50 paly heads, the brown button ones.....

Just take scissors and cut off the heads.

Trade Them just because you dont like them someone may like them, alot of people have some realy strange things, I have snakepolops they dont have any nice color to them but they are pritty cool to watch!

Can isee pics of snake polyps?!

Don't kalk that many at once if you decide to do that.

If you decide to go the killing route, I've had luck taking a pair of tweezers and just plucking them off the rocks. They peel right off. I had some inbetween my zoas and that's what I did, they never came back.

Take the rock out of the tank if you are killing them, wear some sort of eye protection and use gloves.

This will kill pretty much anything. Ive used it for aptasia. Melts any coral you put it on. so keep the pumps off while you do this.

Just remember before kalking 50+ palys, don't do it all at once. Do it in spurts or else you'll spike your pH and such and stress the entire tank in the process.

Do 5 -10 a day (depending on the size of your tank) and you'll be rid of them in no time.

Cibo, do they grow, spread? I have had one for like 5 years, and it has not multiplied or anything. Just this brownish thing doing nothing but sitting.lol
