Aiptista's 2 - the aftermath

[Stuquarium]

ok...

i got some joe's juice fomr my LFS and i blasted all those nasty aiptista's

a day after, they are all shiverled up and just hanging on the rock.

the biggest one has fallen off the rock and is lieing on the sand bed.

for all the small ones should i just let them be and they eventually dissapear? or pick them of?

what about this biggest one thats fallen off the rock. scoop it out and toss it out? or leave it to disapear?

i dunno whats thet right thing to do.

I wouldn't try to remove them from the rock, but I would toss the one on the sand.

cool thanks. if they havent dissapeared after a day or 2 shold i re apply the juice?

I've been fortunate enough to not have to deal with aptasia so I have no experience with the juice itself. I'd say if it seems like they are recovering, shoot them up again.

will do thanks.

When I got my live rock I pulled the rock that the big one was in and I dug it out with a skewer (and some hot water). The rock recovered nicely and the anemone never came back. I really wanted to get every last bit of that out of there as they can make remarkable recoveries with very little tissue. The little ones were made short work of by my peppermint shrimp. He loves the stuff!

i might add one or 2 shrimp as a back up if the juice's don't work...

but it sure looks liek it does!
