    That sucks :(. My CBB is my favorite fish. Aside from my clowns he was the first fish in the tank for well over a month. I think that really made a difference. Even with my tangs now he's not intimidated by them in the least. Sorry about your loss.

    I think its time for an aiptasia eating nudi... or a fleet of them.

    please excuse wrong words, I posted this from my phone that auto "corrects."

    I dropped 2 peppermint in my tank and used the zapper on the larger aiptasia. I have not seen any in a couple weeks.

    just buy joes juice off the internet somewhere, its a sure fire way to make them disappear, and is probably cheaper than all the money youve spent on a CBB and 7 pep shrimp. I had a couple things of Aip in my tank and as soon as this stuff touched them they disappeared.

    Thanks all...not going to give up on a cbb..Dr fosters said they would refund the shipping so I'm going to try again..any suggestions would be great..gonna quarantine until eating and picking at rocks also gonna try isolating tang in a floating breeding tank for a couple days.

    Good luck with the CBB.
    I'm happy with mine even if it never eats another aipastia again...it's the big pretty showpiece fish my tank was lacking
