Agreed, they do work well but have been known to go after other soft corals such as zoas.

Default berghia

i recommend 6 berghia for every 100 gal.acclimatize them in your sump until lights out,put them into a shot glass and sink the glass.let them crawl out on their own.don't disburse them to different areas of your tank.they need to find each other and mate.when they feed they gang up on a single aptasia and devour it,then move on to the next,and it's the baby s that are the real killers.the least i would put in a tank is 3,to make sure they mate and produce offspring

I have a peppermint you could use, he's getting too big for my 5G and he ate all my aptasia I had in there!

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Default Berghias

Hey guys

I've been battling with my breeding tanks right now. Not sure what's happening but not getting much outcome from 6 breeding berghias. I think I will start from scratch and see if I can solve the problem. I will isolate each one in beaker flasks and let you guys know when I have more available.

Sorry but been trying to breed some since december but it takes 2 months to know whether my batch is good or not. so far no luck. I will start from scratch and not use my current setup. It must be infected with something eating the eggs.

I'll message you guys when I get more

thanks
erick
