victoly Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 It looks like there are two different vendors, any reason you went with one over another kim? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+KimP Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 The other place was sold out from a black Friday sale. I also remembered reeftown was where I had gotten them from years before and they worked. That's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juiceman Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Nevermind, I did some research. Never had any of these before. Worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoly Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 Most people have success. There are some fish that will eat them (wrasses namely), but if they don't have predators they can do a pretty good job of decimating aiptasia.

victoly Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 FYI, if we make it to $300, we get free shipping. That's 25 medium berghia, and I'm down for 4. If we don't make it, shipping isn't super expensive, e.g., for 24 it's only $50 for priority overnight. Looking to close this order by next tuesday, they ship wednesday for thursday delivery. I'm in south austin/oak hill but I can bring them to my office which is near the central market close to aquadome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juiceman Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 how much are they? I have a mild case of them in my 60 gallon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoly Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 like 12 bucks a pop for mediums. They have a calculator on their website (reeftown.com) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juiceman Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Is it something I'd have to get more of later like normal cleanup crew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
victoly Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 unless you have a self sustaining population of both berghia AND aiptasia. , yeah, they'll die out. what I think is probably best is to get them until your aiptasia are gone, catch them and resell (or give away) to local members with aiptasia. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robb in Austin Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I'd be down for a few myself. No idea on how many it takes but I've got giant aiptasia that need to be nuked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
