grumble.
so i put some brine shrimp in my tank a couple of weeks back, as a tasty treat for my little fishies... and it seems as though this is coming back to haunt me. most of them were eaten, a few weren't... and now, they seem to be multiplying. this normally wouldnt be a problem, except for they absolutely adore my button polyps!
the section of new growth on my button polyps is being devoured! at one point today, there were probably upwards of 20 shrimp, all scurrying around, eating away at the tops of the wee little ones! aaaarg! right now, all ive been doing is blowing them off with a turkey baster, but they keep going back. and its not like their population is so great they're overrunning the tank... they just really like the button polyps.
does anyone know of a creature that will actively seek and destroy these polyp-eating demons?
