Default Surprisingly Effective Aptasia Killer
I know this will sound dumb but I've been adding purple up to my 75 for about 5 weeks now. I just noticed that all aptasia are gone. Not a trace. Let me tell you I had a'plenty of them. Joe's juice did OK if I kept treating every week, but then they would come back. I tried my own version with a kalkwasser paste and same result.

Dosing purple up according to directions has done the job. Could raising calcium to around 650 really be the culprit? alk and ph have remained constant(thanks no doubt to Aquacraft ME)

If I stop dosing purple up do you think the aptasia will come back?
