Laser to kill majano or aiptasia with

[Andy V]

Just got 6 berghias from reeftown.com. They say not to expect much for a few months until they've reproduced through several generations but I've noticed that the rock where I introduced them is already aiptasia-free. One thing I'm hoping with the berghias is that they get into my overflow and my sump. I've had peppermint shrimp and a Copperband in the past and they both did a great job in the tank but obviously weren't able to get anywhere else.

I don't know why they say this. They've always done the job for me within a month, and usually within a few days!

From what I've seen, Copperbands can eat them and big ones, peppermint shrimp can only eat little ones and prevent further growth but can't get rid of big ones.

Joe do you have wrasses? I've read here/heard that this can potentially be a fail?

I have had multiple fairies and flasher wrasses in a 60 gallon tank with Berghia. If you do what Chris said (put them in at night) you will not have a problem.
