Learn About Aiptasia to Kill Them: Natural Aiptasia control is the goal of most reef keepers. Thousands of reef hobbyists and professionals now know that the Aiptasia removed by Berghia nudibranchs do not leave remnants from the foot of the Aiptasia behind to grow back later. Aiptasia species anemones are imported from around the world on maricultured coral plugs and live rocks as well as traded between tanks on macro algaes and at frag swaps. Aiptasia are also easily obtained from aquacultured corals that are grown in facilities that have not started using Berghia for Aiptasia control. Berghia are the only absolute natural Aiptasia control that can get down under, in holes and cracks and specifically remove the Aiptasia anemones including all of the pedal lacerates and tiny Aiptasia that are the result of spawning in the reef. There is no fish or shrimp that can get all those tiny Aiptasia beginnings. Berghia may be combined with an Aiptasia eating fish to naturally control Aiptasia but the nudibranch is effective without any help when given the time. If a fish is used, the fish will keep some of the anemones that can be seen from growing on the top side of rocks and the Berghia nudibranch will remove the rest of the Aiptasia from the top, between coral

colonies and from down under. It is the down under part we don't see that is the most important for a complete and final solution. It is possible to control Aiptasia species anemones such as Aiptasia mutabilis, Aiptasia pallida [Dysactis pallida], Aiptasia pulchella, Aiptasia californica with the Berghia nudibranch (occassionally misspelled as Bergia, a plant taxonomy) also known as Aeolidiella stephanieae, that is tank bred here at INSTAR. Learn more about Aiptasia (sometimes misspelled as aptasia), the dreaded Glass Anemone, to insure success in removing it from your aquarium while still maintaining healthy live rocks, viable live sand and stable system parameters.
