Aptasia. Kill em quick!

Dammit. Aren't they really hard to get rid of?

I don't have any calcium to inject them with. The best I can do is take their host rock out and boil it.

If you have a clean needle and some concentrated lemon juice you can inject them and take them out that way :) Or Kalk paste through a bigger syringe or turkey baster very gently.

Get a pepermint shrimp, if you have alot of them then get a few pepermints. Natural deffences are the best.

Think I could try it with lime juice instead?

If there is only a few just clip off that piece of the rock.. It's better if you don't even mess with them! If you make them mad they will come back a vengeance!

Def picking up some of those once the tank is cycled. Good tip.
