works slow by STEVEN MARCOCCIA

Comments: the bigger ones would just blow it out and be back even after 3 or 4 doses but I will say it does work... you just need to get them before they get any bigger than a quarter. the thing I found that works for me is getting a football inflater stem ( these are metal and can be bought most anywhere to inflate balls ) and attaching it to a doser that can be bought at any most any store as well generally they come in Tsp. sizes ( 2 tsp) and screwing the inflater to the doser and pushing it into the aiptasia them selves ( well best you can into their mouth ) Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: I have used Chem-Marin Stop Aptasia many times in the past and it seems to work okay for a few anemones. However, in my Nano I had over 100 aptasia and nailed these guys with this product about a dozen times and it seamed like they developed a tolerance to the product. Some died, but those that survived reproduced like mad. I just tried some of Joe's Juice and 95% were dead after one dose! I zapped the survivors and those I missed tonight and viola, no more aptasia. I only used about 6cc of Joe's Juice vs. about 20+ cc of Chem-Marin per treatment. I have not tried the other brands, but why should I. Joe's Juice worked great on my huge problem and it costs teh least. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: I keep 9 aquaria to run test in. In my Green Mandarinfish work #4 was infected by Aiptasia. I tried using this Chem-Marin product instead of Berghia verrucicornis and had to shut down and dry out #4 with all the live rock that was in it. Though #4 is only a 29 gallons aquarium it was the Amphepod production unit and the whole population was lost. Two mated pairs and an adult male of the Mandarins starved after which 3 mated pairs had to be sold. The use of this product was not only a waste of money and time but also the destruction of my entire effort. Products of this quality are why so many people quit our hobby in a year or two. I would not recommend this product to my friends.

Comments: Seems like you REALLY need to get the anemones to take in a lot of this stuff PLUS more than one treatment in order for them to die. Coating the aiptasia seemed to help BUT some of them seemed to come back even after a few treatments. I would recommend for the beginning of an aiptasia breakout and not for when your tank is covered in them. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
