Be careful using vinegar that you don't cause a pH crash. That would nuke your tank pretty quickly. Shooting boiling water at aiptasia or joe's Juice works really well too, and both are safer alternatives.

Choosing bulbs is just personal choice. Blues are different than actinic though.

Thanks, I was a little apprehensive to shoot a bunch a vinegar in my tank, probably just going to break down and buy some aiptasia x, or joes juice.

Sorry about calling the Actinics I bought blue bulbs, I'm new. The bulbs are blue and figured they were one in the same.

I'm trying to sort out the difference between LPS and SPS, which is turning out to be a bit of a gongshow.

I did the boiling water directly to the aiptasia with a syringe. Worked great! Mine were not huge though so don't know if works on larger ones.
