| "UPDATE! This
guy was added 9/02, not because I just HAD to have
one, but to work. His job is to control the Aiptasia
and I must say that so far he's been doing a great
job. We had been using the old 'kalk paste through
a syringe' method and it was doing an adequate
job. But in a tank this big, with so many nooks
and crrannies, it was just impossible to to get
to the ones near the bottom and under the corals.
I was a little bit hesitant to go the butterfly
route since I heard that Copperbands soon die and
Raccoons will often eat Zoanthids. Then Ray brought
Hennies to my attention. I'd never heard of using
them in this manner before but things were beginning
to get desperate. So we put him in the refugium
with a few Aiptasia for about a week and he seemed
to do his job. Once in the tank, there was the
inevitable 'battle' between him and the Sohal (And
the Purple Tang, to my surprise) but after a day
or two, everyone left him alone and he's been The
Angel Of Aiptasia Death ever since. I'll keep everyone
updated on his progress." |
