    Definitely feel your pain as I just went crazy with my 50gal low boy as aptasia( hope I spelled it right) they got on my nerves. I removed every piece of life rock ,grabbed my power drill with a huge drill bit. Made some fresh salt water and drilled each of them until they dissolved in the bucket. I usually zap them with a long syringe with boiling hot ro 💧. I removed the substrate that was crushed coral that had them all over the place and dumped into my backyard against the fence line.Replaced with 4 20 lb bags of life reef sand, as I left the clean rocks with corals attached in the tank 💧 overnight. So far good as I will monitor any remaining ones to do the same.My mistake was buying one rock from a seller whom claimed no pest was on them on in them. Lesson learned. Happy reefing 😊

    Tank looks amazing man. I too deal with Aiptasia in my jbj 45. I find if I take care of them as I find them with some Aiptasia X or whatever, it at least keeps them at bay. Something I will always have to do, but I have come to terms with it. Worst case scenario, there are bergia nudibranchs.

    First off let me say I love your videos and want to thank you for taking the time to produce them. However, my main reason for the post is to see if your sump still has the tiny shrimp in it and if you'd be willing to siphon some out and sell them. I'm willing to pay a small fortune for some. I've been in the hobby for over 2 decades and even have a video that got 60k views, LOL. Anyways, either way thanks for the great vids. Because of personal medical issues I've gotten rid of my 240 and now I'm intending to upgrade my FijiCube 20 to an Innovative Marine 75 and mostly as a result of your videos!

      I siphoned them out when I cleaned my sump you alittle too late. If they pop up again no problem they are yours just cover shipping 🫡

    My experience kalk paste works. You will need help though. The kalkwasser only works on the ones you are able to get too.
    The peroxide is a great tool for reef tank. Never had an issue using it. Ive dipped zoas with it. They closed for a few day but came back happy.

    I do a water change every couple of week's but due to work commitments and a vacation and being away i didnt do one for 5 weeks, set up auto feeder and auto doser was working well,
    The tank never looked better.

    @SilentBiscuit17 7 месяцев назад

    Your best option is natural removal, id stay away from the peroxide and all that stuff. Copperband, filefish, peppermint shrimp, etc. You will always have aptasia in your tank, its just all about keeping it at a minimum

    CJ, beautiful tank, question, can you send me info or tell me about your hood for your lights. Materials, construction details. I need to build one but want it lightweight and yours looks lightweight. Also need mine to just rest on some support posts I have that are attached to my wall.

    • @CJSAQUARIUMS
      @CJSAQUARIUMS  7 месяцев назад

      I would prefer the 100ext only reason I didn’t was due to being in 2nd floor of an apt. Weight issues. The 100ext will give you more space under tank and extra sump space with NUVO sump

      @@CJSAQUARIUMS Maybe it’s worth squeezing in a 100 gallon. Might give me more options like adding some smaller tangs. Any concerns with the tank going on slate tile without leveling feet?

    • @CJSAQUARIUMS
      @CJSAQUARIUMS  7 месяцев назад

      I shimmed my entire left side of my stand to level the tank haven’t had any issues the stands are a pain to assemble but strong. You could always go custom with leveling feet yourself tho. Ether way I’d go 100ext in your space if it fits 🫡
