Hi! I used to visit your forum quite a bit. Life has gotten busy, I've been away but now I'm back looking for some help! I've had my 55 gallon RR tank up and running for almost 6 years. In the past year or so, I've neglected it a tad. (Hangs head in shame). But it's summertime, I'm on vacation from work until August and I've got a renewed interest in making my tank look nice again.
Here's my problem. My tank is FULL of majeno anemones. The anemone forum says to try joe's juice, peppermint shrimp or a copperbanded butterfly. I'm thinking joe's juice would cause my tank to crash since there are hundreds of those little boogers to kill. I set out to a few stores today looking for the shrimp. However, one employee at the LFS says that the shrimp will eat aiptasia, not majeno. He thinks I need to remove my tang (I would if I could catch him!) and get a racoon butterfly. He says a copperbanded butterfly will only eat tiny majenos.
Does anyone have experience with majeno anemones? I'm not talking one or two or even a handful of them. I need advice on ridding my tank of a major outbreak.
