![]() just cut back on your feedings, or get a fish that eats pods.
amphipods arnt horribly bad but they are not reef safe, and hydroids are tough to get rid of. you can try peppermint shrip to get rid of both ![]()

haha i try lol yeah exactly its not the end of the world, if you cut back your feedings and nutrients the hydroids will dissapear, you can pluck them out with tweasers strand by strand. if you have fish in your tank amphipods will hide all the time untill dark ![]()

![]() Phew that's a relief. Yah I will cut back my feeding to one time a day. Nutrients remain below 5ppm while I do WC.
And about fish, my tank is currently at war. Purple dottyback vs wrasse. So yah the pods got reasons to hide :P And yah Denny do try to keep my threads lively. They tends to be boring without some jokes ![]() |

![]() Those amphipods will eat zoanthids if they are out of food. I bought my copperband butterfly to eat them because they were eating my zoanthids. It worked and I can rarely see them now, with the copperband active all night while the amphipods are out.
I kill those amphipods as much as I can. They don't serve any purpose in the aquarium. They only come out at night when most all fish are asleep, so they are not even fish food. Wrasses can't eat them because they sleep at night.
