nudibranches are the best, i was in the same boat for years, tried every thing, putting kalk, injecting lemon juice, aiptasia x, nothing worked, seemed like u kill one and 10 more show up. but with the nudi i have non left even the ones that were between my zoos disappeared, only sad part now is that i have no food for these guys.

No mention of kalk paste nor a zapper. You can make one pretty easy. I made one and it worked really good. My CBB keeps aptasia in check for my tank

So do they sell Joes Juice still?
If so than check the ingredients first

can you use the nudies if you have wrasses?
Joes juice is just kalk paste I belive. I too am battling these demons. I have problems injecting as my hands shake too much.

Default Peps

I had aptasia problem as well. Left it alone for awhile but was getting out of hand. Had about a dozen around rocks on tank. Could not source any nudis so went to JL and got three peps. Figured if at least one ate the aptasia then the others would follow. Less than a week ago. No aptasia visible anymore. Maybe try another couple peps?

I just picked one up and it hasn't touched any aiptasia yet. He's still in quarrantine and maybe its because he hasn't fully settled in yet. But I have 3 leathers attached to live rock that I moved to that tank due to space restrictions in the main reef and they each have 3 or 4 aiptasia on the base of the rock that the leather is attached to, so far, the file hasn't gone after a single one.

I have one peppermint and one file fish in that quarrantine tank and neither have gone after a single nem yet.
