aiptasia vs. candy cane

well thanks...I was hoping my butterfly would eat em, but it's not interested in them now. It LOVES Tim's barf... Guess it keeps it from nipping at my corals tho :up:
 
That things is now a pile of mush! I used dill pickle juice though. Is there any reason why I shouldnt use pickle juice over say, aiptasia x or joes juice? I have a few more that I need to take care of.
 
use what works.
I dunno about the pickle juice and what else it may introduce into the tank though...
 
Pickle juice or pickling lime? I'd think pickle juice could foul your water along with possibly affecting pH (it is pretty much just vinegar).
 
I had some a few weeks ago...it took just a little shot of joe's juice (or Julie/Chris concoction!) and they were done...it was fun too...have to be kinda sneaky!

Pickle juice from a jar of pickles..lol. I only used about 2mg with a sryinge, and I have a 180g. I didnt think that little bit could have a negative effect.
I heard about it on another forum, so I decided to try it.

I took the rock out that the mojanos were on and put it in a tank with a light on the opposite end of the rock. The mojanos moved off the rock toward the light and I havent seen one since. Aiptasia haunt me in my dreams.........
i tried that they just left a trail of mojanos wherever they went, ended up breaking that tank down after fighting them for 6 months, and losing ground.
 
Never had a problem with either.. Entire hobby I have maybe had 5 aiptasia.. Killed them with lemon juice and needle nose pliers..
