I finally got a few corals and took some pics

[inked]

Most of the small rocks are just seeding coraline which seems to be working nicely. I know its looking pretty bare but we all started somewhere lol.

[Killerdrgn]

If you can grow an aptaisia you can grow shrooms. So kill it now before it overruns your tank.

 

[inked]

[rookie07]

you must remove all of it or it will regrow...i had one...now like 10 all over the place...dont know what to do now..im really lazy

 

[inked]

I feel ike I just played 100 games of wack a mole lmao! After getting up close and personal I have a couple more in the tank also. None of which I can get out with out tearing it apart. I will give lemon juice a shot and keep a close eye for new ones.

Kalk paste or joes juice always work for me.

I had a few small aiptasia growing on my rocks. I put a couple peppermint shrimp in there and they seem to have eaten it all. Apparently it is hit or miss with the shrimp, but they worked for me.

cool thanks everyone for the info.

I found a new way to remove aiptasia:

I recently saw a small one growing on one of my rocks, so I watched it & waited until it grew enough to inject it (quadripled in size in a few days). I positioned the rock it was on so that it was on top of the rock.

Then, I placed a frag on a large frag disk right on top of it thinking it would die of smotherization, in the interim while I found a needle. Everytime I saw it peeking out from under the frag disk I would reposition the disk so that it was covered.

I went to my local pharmacy & they refused to sell me a syringe. Went home thinking I would just carve a chunk of the rock it was on out. Picked up the frag disk & it had moved to the disk! And split off a baby!

Removed the disk from the tank & surgically removed (scraped off with razor blade) both from disk. Viola! No more aiptasia!!

Joes Juice Kicks ass!

Got around to getting some Joe's Juice this weekend all I can say is woo! I actually did it with some friends over with their kids and It was the highlight of the night watching them blow up (pretty lame night riight lol). Anyway they are almost all gone a couple tiny ones that I take care of when I seen them. Thanks for the info on joe's juice it really does work! Here are my tanks on there new stand that is pretty much done. Now I am actually wanting to upgrade the 12 jbj i just got to anothe 24 aquapod hqi!

 

[Awibrandy]

They look so cute there together. Kinda like mama & baby!!

I got rid of my one and only aiptasia by injecting it with plain old white vinegar. I guess one good thing came out of being a diabetic.lol

 

[inked]

lol awibrandy it does look pretty silly I will probably do some switching around once the 12 gets setup a little more. Put the 24 on top and 12 on the side. I was actually thinking about removing alot of the sand in the 24 looks weird with all that in there.

 

[DevIouS]

I feel ike I just played 100 games of wack a mole lmao!
