looking for something to control the aiptasia before it controls the tank. I prefer peppermint shrimp but will happily buy a filefish or copperband butterfly.

if you dont have wrasses or dont mind you can go the nudi route.

a guy here on canreef and in calgary has them for sale , his handle is midway and he has a few he was selling i seen him bump his post this morning so give him a pm , these will rid you of it:)

cheers

Thanks for the heads up - I do have a wrasse, but I didn't know about nudis and wrasses - so I did a little internet research ...

seems that I found out why all the small peppermints I am introducing to the tank are disappearing -> my juvenile red coris wrasse :mad2:

Although I have a large cleaner shrimp that he is leaving alone (for now) - anyone out there with large peppermint shrimp and red coris or similar wrasse?

I had nudis clear up my aptasia problem in my 90 gallon, and I had melanarus wrasse in that tank.
