Another vote for Blue Vet. Used it just the other day. I used Blue Vet when it first came out on a rock that had several very large Aptaisia and they did not come back for over a year. I sold the tank and rock so I do not know how it looks today, but I would think a year without Aptaisia would be a good test.

why does a pink floyd song kick in my head when i read this. "WE don't need no aptaisia." "we don't need no ugly anenomes"

i have used aptasia control with mixed results, more positive than negative, i guess. sometimes it works very well, sometimes not, dunno what the variable is, i install and maintain aquariums professionally, so i have many opportunities to try out things. 3 of the tanks i have used it on had no recurrences after initial dose, the other one i have had aptasia issues with still is overrun, i get them all and by the next week not only are the ones that i dosed back, but they have spawned friends.

its almost been a week and still none have re-sprout. aiptasia x is 14-18$ depending on where you buy. but this blue vet is 8.99-11.99 and defiantly worth it.:applause::applause::applause::applause:
