 Topic: Majano Anenome advice
Posted: August 12 2009 at 10:08pm |
|
I just recently purchased rock from a guest on this site and although it is great looking rock, I got quite a few hitchhikers. The gorgeous but dreaded majano is my chief concern. Having spoken with Jeremy W. about it, he advises immediate death to the majano, but being the nervous type i started researching and have found too many differing views of the majano from control it and keep it to using napalm. Which is the correct answer? I have a 90g reef and fish tank with frogspawn, hammer, zoas, star polyps, mushrooms, a lizard blenny, chromis, a pencil urchin and 60 hermits and snails. Sorry jeremy, I just want to get all the advice I can before messing up my tank, as i am apt to do.

Joes juice is cheap and works really well. But kill them a couple at a time or it can mess with your bio load. Also on a side note, I found out (on accident of coarse) that mercury will kill majano anemones! Chad.

A copperbanded butterfly fish should eat the majanos, but MAY eat some of your polyps and things as well....

I've heard copperbands are somewhat iffy on majanos great on peppermints though. I think Kliens are supposed to be better on majanos but they will eat corals also. Personally I haven't even tried a Kliens although I have used copperbands.

Kill them now or you will wish you had later. One or ten are cool, but hundreds are not, unless you wanted an anemone only tank.
I have had great luck with Aptasia X. Pretty much wiped them out in my tank after 3 applications over a months time. If you have just a few you might be able to get them all at once.

OK, local consensus is kill them. Thank you all for your advice, and sorry again Jeremy, I should have just listened the first time. Now off to Fish4U to buy napalm.........
