how to kill a rbta

[garys reef]

ok i dont want to hear all the bashing i have a rbta that keeps splitting and moving all over my tank they are on base pieces of rock so i cant get the rock out i have tried ice and put a pump right on them trying to get them to move so i can get them and nothing they just shrival up into the hole they are attached to i need to get rid of them i was told if you inject kalk into them it will kill them just wondering if there are any other ideas

 

[Koolaidreef]

Rip the foot time to get aggressive lol

Be carful because I dead rbta can spike your levels if not removed quickly

 

[garys reef]

thats the problem if i go near them they shrival up to nothing and they are in a hole in the rock

Gary you have anemones that came from my tank. I has one that I been trying to get for weeks. I gave up and injected him with kalk solution 2x shriveled to nothing

You say it keeps moving, maybe find it when it is moving and "Grab it"?

Also you can try going lights out for a few days and then turn the lights back on, I'm sure it will move to find more intense lighting.

Or just give me all your rock

if he does that he risks the bta killing everything on its way

you dont need a prescription for a syringe. goto cvs and show them your license.

Or go to the grocery store and get a turkey injector... Just a big syringe.

 

[duke62]

Why cany you just cut off the foot. Your taking a big chance killing it in your tank. Cvs and any other pharmacies only sell real small needle and the kalk wont be able to be sucked in unless you make it exrtemely watery which you will probably not kill it

 

[ecvernon]

If you suck up the clear part of kalk solution it will get them for sure. I used a 3 ml syringe 2x. Once I cut These rbta from the foot and scraped off as much as I can with a tooth brush. The part that remained hidden in a deep crevice actually regenerated into a very tiny rbta!!!!!! If the tank parameters are good these guys can regenerate from nothing!
