    the one thing i dont like about pepp. shrimps is that they will pull out any mini feather duster in reach and eat him right in front of your eyes, almost as if to say, what you gonna do?

    yes ive heard of many people with good nems that did kalk, you should really turn off any pumps while injecting them and when the pumps go back on any kalk residue should dissipate rather quickly. besides ive dumped pure salt, kalk, calcium, and many types of buffers on alot of different corals (not intentionally) and the only thing most of them did was lose some colour and got back to normal in a week or so.

    In the past, I have used RedSea's Aiptasia-X and a couple of Peppermint Shrimps. I have found that the Pepper's work the best. Something to keep in mind, depending on the size of your tank, you may need to buy a couple of them. If you only buy 1 or 2, they will eat what is left over from the fish and not touch the aiptasia. Buy more than you think you need and in no time will make your aiptasia disappear. Luna
