No after effects noticed, such as algae blooms? Yellow water?

| I haven't noticed any changes so far. It's been about two days. If you use it you have to rember to shut off all pumps for a half hour. |

i just bought some blue vet aiptasia killer, it was a pain, i had to drip a whole bunch over the aiptasia and i had to rotate the rock so it would be held there by gravity at which point they go in their hole.
also when my pumps cam on about an hour later my fish and peppermints ate alot of the killer and the shrimp would take it from the hole even before it was all over the tank, that cant be too good.
i think the easiest way is to get them when they are young, they usually have their whole stalk exposed when young, unless they have already found a hole for protection, i just get some scisssors and cut the bottom of the stalk at which point my peppermints like them. but be careful, if you dont have something that likes injured or deasd aiptasia dont do this, you may end up with two aiptastias, then four then..!!!

I think this is whta is happening to me. I tried to remove some aiptastia while suctioning and now I noticed a whole buch of them in the area. Approx 10 or so are in a small area and more are appearing. I also have what I believe are Parasitic snails.(this is another thread I will start though). I think I may just get some peppermints and let them go nuts. At this point I dont know what else to do

I think a lot of people dont use joes juice to its potential. You need to turn off all flow.......30 minutes stated above after treatment seems too long to me....i dont like leaving stagnant water in my pipes that long. Regardless, you do need to shut off flow while treating and for a few minutes after. Joes will not hurt anything in your tank besides anemones.......you dont wat to get it in your good anemones. Your zoos will eat it and get all ticked off ofr a day or three but they come out of it.
When you feed them approach them slowly and feed them absolutley as much as you can fit into the aip or majano. They will willingly eat it if you approach them slowly....fill em up. They wont spread or come back if you do that IME. They used to come back on me as well until i started to feed them absolutely as much as possible.
And trying to suction them out or pry them out WILL spread them.
