Aptasia?

HUNTER1 · 01/05/2013, 09:15 AM

I spotted one small aptasia, its way under one big rock and no way I can get my hand on it. I know it will spread, should I just wait till others surface where I can get to them and kill them?

can you move the rock so you can get at it? if that is possible move the rock set it so when it opens back up you can hit aptasia x

Hit it with Aiptasia x and you should be good to go. If it spreads get peppermint shrimp they took care of a huge outbreak I had when i killed the bigger ones with aiptasia x first. The peppermint shrimp didnt work for me untill I had about 2-3 for each 10 gallons of water.
