I picked up a Copperband a couple weeks ago and he is slowly getting on frozen foods but until I feel confident that he is getting enough I want to make an offer. If you have any rocks that are easily removed from your tank and want them to be cleaned of all aptasia and any algae (Tomini) I would l I venture to borrow them for a couple days. If you are aware that you have other pests such as flat worms, red bugs, black bugs etc. Please don't offer them up. I live in South Weber and work in Sandy. I am willing to pick them up and drop them off. He has cleaned up 2 tanks of rock thus far although he does not eat mojanos he loves aptasia.

Text would be best

Nice offer.

Just a note, I'd be sure to follow up with Peppermint Shrimp now or within a month or so. In my experience, and others, the Aiptasia flesh that was missed in the tiny holes and minute cracks will grow and eventually become visible and repopulate. Peppermint Shrimp can pick into all the tiny places to thoroughly eradicate the Aiptasia.

Aloha,
