What a frustration. Aiptasia is getting out of control, probably in excess of 200 in a 65gal tank. I tried a few peppermints but no luck there. i finally got my hands on a copperband yesterday. He picked out some worms and feather dusters; but seems like he wont touch the aiptasia. Just venting, thanks for listening

thanks for the tips guys. i really hope he develops an appetite for aiptasia-that was his sole purpose, but he is a beautiful fish nonetheless.

remember man ,rely only on yourself to rid of those Aiptasia ,Joes juice or kalk ,as you know it is a hit or miss,But trust me before you knowit you will not see anymore of them ,or as much if you juice them!!just shut down your pumps and do 4 or 5mins time a day
