I got a small aptasia that came on my Zoos. What would be a cheap and effective way to remove it, id rather not spend all that money on joes juice for one this small. Do pepermint shrimp work? Think i heard something about boiling water. of course i dont want to harm my zoos either.

Thanks,

Joe's juice did very little to help our aptasia problem. The peppermint shrimp got rid of them very quickly.

I've also had a lot of luck with peppermint shrimp. Had a massive outbreak of aptasia, peppermint shrimp got virtually all of them.
 
My peppermint has not touched my Aptasia, at least not that I can see! Although he does love to come out and scavenge the sand for left overs!
