Hi
I've kept marines for a number of years, but unfortunately, despite initial
success, I've started to have a number of problems.
For a number of reasons, I've now decided to go fish only...
Can anyone recommend some products for removing the Aptasias that I'm
overrun with in my tank and sump.
Also, are there any products that I can use to reduce the quick build-up of
algae on the tank glass, and rocks??
Thanks
Paul

Ive had good luck with Joe's Juice. You can also get a small gauge
hypodermic needle and inject them with BOILING water or concentrated
kalkwasser (pickling lime). Be careful with the kalk and not use to
much as it can upset water parameters. Joe's is relatively expensive,
but worth it.

yep Joe's juice worked for me. I tried the boiling water in a syringe and
kalk but only temporarily. I was a bit reluctant at first but it worked
first time. you only need to inject around the mouth when its feeding and
its dead.

If you're going fish only, how about copper?
