    Has anyone used this product?
    Will this work just as well and safely as Joe's Juice?
    thanks

    There is a couple things. Turn off all flow in the tank you dont want it being blow off the aptasia. Wait until the aptasia eats it and its stem is fat. Do not get it on other coral. My pagoda got hit 2 times and the polyps got burned.
    This is what happens if it hits another coral

    yeah it works great
    will kill just about anything else you put it on though too so watch out

    from what i have heard it is a lot thicker than joes juice, which i hear kind of just floats where you squirt it, and you get a lot bigger bottle of aptasia x.

    Well my aiptasia is in the middle of a zoa colony so it is going to hit them I think.
    Does Joe's Juice work just as well and is it less harmful to other corals?

    I have used it, but I went back to kalk paste injected into the pests with a syringe, and it works as well, but costs less.
