    no,just do it right in the tank,don't put paste directly on other corals though.if the paste is thick it will stick to the rock or sink.

    I take kalkwasser and make a paste put it in a suringe and shoot it into the aptasia or manjos and that will usually kill them or get a copper band and pray it likes them and not your corals. I havent tried the boiling water might have to try that one.

    oooowwwwweeeeeee that smarts huh? how long will the screws be in?

    I'll do the kalkwasser paste seems easier than ordering a fish, acclimating, then praying it eats them and not my few corals :)
