Joes Juice

What a sham!
This product does not work.
I have had to juice the same damn apitasia 4 times now, it shrivles up for about 3 weeks and then its back with a vengence, getting bigger every time. I follow the instructions to the tee, and yet no results of a dead apitasia, just dead zoos.

Product NOT RECOMMENDED.

Hey Gizmo... Sorry to hear that about your dealings with "the juice", but I have found it to be an awesome product...I just wish the peppermint shrimp I got to deal with the plague of aptasia in a "natural" way would get off their collective butts and start chowing down...

we tried joes juice once, and the apitasia came back 3 times worse, and also killed one of the bubble tips we had. after that we gave it away and have now tried vinegar which seems to work.

vinegar and a needle works great IMO

Just don't overdue it at one time - it can affect your PH

JJ and anything else I have tried thus far has not worked. The only tried and true method for me so far is manual removal and digging it out. I have never tried the vinegar, will have to try that.

Maybe I just got a good batch but it has worked quite well for me. I find you just have to sneak up on them and make sure they actually ingest it. My peppermint in my 44 cube eliminates all in that tank but in my 230 I have tried to get peppermint in there but my CBS keep killing them so JJ it is.

Kalk paste works good, just be careful what you get it on.

In the past Joe's Juice has worked for me. As long as you actually feed the aptasia it they are goners.

I have watched aiptasia injest it directly and it just annoys them for a couple weeks and they shrivel up shortly. The pepermints I have tried have never had any interest in aiptasia. JJ is pretty much a kalk paste, and the kalk paste I tried didnt work either? Ohh well, onto the vinegar, lol.
