If you are trying to kill aptasia there are cheeper ways than Joe' Juice. I scorch them with fresh boiling water using a turkey baster. Die aptasia!! :evil:

Joe's Juice seems to work sporatically.. Hot Water works best
I still have some JJ left and have done tests, the hotwater AP's do no return, but the JJ'ed ones do..

Sweet, well I'll just skip the JJ then, since it isn't worth the $15 that the LFS wants.
If everyone is doing it with hot water and a turky baster, is everyone using a glass TB?

The glass Turkey baster is a little dangerous, IMO - plastic is better. Either way the end is huge... :eek: Don't know how people control the flow blasting out of the those, maybe mine is garbage tho.
Try to find a syringe with a small diameter end, and let er rip. The curved syringes the dentists have are very good.

I agree, they just keep on working - no reaching back in to get the ones missed or failed to kill. :mrgreen:

Peppermint eh?
I already have two cleaners in that tank, and in my other tank I have a fire shrimp.
They aren't really compatable are they?

I have peppermints & cleaners in a 33g. No problems as long as each pair has its own set of LR to call home :biggrin:

Also have one fire shrimp & one cleaner in my 35g hex.

PS. I've also found that aptasia sometimes come back after a Joe's Juice treatment.

We've had peppermint shrimp in our tank from the beginning and they have never touched aiptasia. I hear they can be hit and miss...

Boiling water once and their dead for good! No misses!

I've never had any aptaisia come back after JJ...then again, I use a lot of it on each aptasia. Kalk paste works well I hear. FWIW I think JJ is just glorified Kalk paste...

Well I'm going to try the boiling water approach, if that fails, I'll look into a Peppermint, and finally I'll probably break down and get JJ or make kalk paste.
