joe's juice

anyone familiar with joe's juice..........I have been using it on my apstasia and i was wondering if it can be harmful to other creatures in my tank because ............it sure isn't working on the apstasia so i keep trying and i don't want to hurt anything else

 

I take a tube of superglue gel that is used to mount frags and stick the end into the hole that the apstasia has pulled into, squeeze a little in, hold it there for about 10 seconds or longer, pull it out and the glass anemone comes out stuck to it.

 

Very interesting,first time i have heard that remedy but it sounds great .....Thanks

 

I use pickling lime, I mix it with tank water or RO water, and use an eye dropper to feed it to the little b@$%!*&$.
It's not like you're dumping a gallon of the product into your tank. Depending on the size of your system, the amount that you use shouldn't affect the water parmeters.

 

That sounds like it would take care of the little b@$%!&$ for sure. My tank is a 20 cube so I have to use something that won't change the water chemistry though. I have been using the glue for soem time and it works every time, that is if I can get to the anemone. A few I have had to lift and turn the rock and if there are corals on it then it can be a pain.
Iv'e learned to put new rock into my refugium for a week or so before I place it into the display. But I am almost rocked out now. I have one more awesome piece I couldn't pass on that will be crammed beneath the ricordias above the GBTA and between the yellow zoos, or maybe if I jamb it through the opening where the ... I'll make it fit somehow. That way if any critters are there I don't want in the main tank I can usually get them before-hand.

 

I've been using Joe's Juice for 2 years and it works great. Kills the aptasia immediately. I squirt it right into the center of the aptasia. I''m not sure why your not getting good results Aquagirl.

 

really?Raven I just am not getting the same results as you ....do you let your grow a little before you get em! I have some that are growing right up next to my xenia and i am afraid to let it grow so i try to get it as soon as i see it and it just keeps growing back.............

 

would a copperband fit in your tank? i have Joe's 2, it's a pain to keep on putting your hand in there to nuke them.

 

I've been using joes juice for about 2 years....Its been so potent IME that a 5ml syringe will wipe out around 60 of em if you have a steady hand. Are you positive there glass anemones...? How are you using the juice?
