Underwater Epoxy question

Everytime I kill my aptasia they come back in a few weeks 
. Its the babbies thats hard to kill since its so hard to see them. Gotta be careful when you kill them also cuz they will spour in the water and spread themselves. You can use a kalkwasser rich paste and squirt some on them, just turn off all your flow. Ive got some Blue Life Aiptasia control if you wanna borrow it let me know. Ive used it to kill both manjanos and aiptasia.
You can try some peppermint shrimp but they aren't guarenteed to eat aiptasia. Its hit or miss on them.
You can try the epoxy. Ive never heard of it done though. Let me know how that works out lol. Buy it from home depot so you dont waste your money, its called aqua mend and its reef safe, around 3 bucks

Yes they are good to have in a fuge as they filter out the bad things. The only real solution I ever found was adding some peppermint shrimp. Worked both times for me. Also a Copperband butterfly or Kleins Butterfly do the job just as well. Klein's have a taste for Zoa's too. Look into Berghia Nudi's as well. Avatar is well creepy!

peppermint shrimp .... end of story. i had an out brake about to happen i had one aiptasia that turned into like 5 in a few weeks, all over my tank. i got one peppermint, feed normal for a day or 2 so it didnt die and then stopped feeding for 3 days. ALL Gone now, and if u dont like peppermint shrimp then go buy yourself a new wrasse lol it will make for a good first meal for him!!
