Thanks im going to pressure clean it today. Im so annoyed that I coukdnt put it in my tank it was in his tank for 6 years but the aptasia was just to much for me to kill off and way to large for a bunch of peps to eat. Hopefully you guys will be seeing an upgrade in the near future. Kinda depends on my work at the moment im thinking of resigning haha

These ones were huge like 2 inches... I got a few in my tank now im going to try kill them off tonight with joes juice. Iv had some success with it before but I think the main reason these came bsck was because I didnt leave the paste on long enough

Iv had some success with it before but I think the main reason these came bsck was because I didnt leave the paste on long enough Hope it works out for you. Mine would always retract down into the crevices of the rocks where I couldn't get to them. So,I pulled the rock out temp and once they retracted I filled the crevice with superglue and let it set. Haven't seen them return yet. Not sure if this is the best way to do it but I have heard where others have used the putty and done the same thing to get rid of them also. |

Dang....that sounds like a good price for a MP-10. Think I am gonna have to break down and get some juice too. The one I had is back and the peppermint shrimp isn't doing anything for it.
