Red Sea Aiptasia-X
Aiptasia-X is a unique, thick adhesive mixture that globulates on contact with the aquarium water.
It is easily injected near to the oral disk of the anemone and stimulates the anemone to ingest the material without causing it to withdraw.
Within minutes of ingesting the Aiptasia-X the anemone will implode, eradicating both the anemone and planulas.
Aiptasia-X globules will not affect the sessile polyps of corals and allows for the safe treatment of Aiptasia that have grown inside coral colonies.
Excess Aiptasia-X will decompose over time without causing any harm to the reef.
Red Sea Aiptasia-X offering:
A unique adhesive material.
Aiptasia does not retract during treatment.
Does not affect water chemistry.
Includes straight & angled applicator tips.
Red Sea’s Aiptasia-X treatment is completely reef-safe and any material not ingested by the Aiptasia is harmless to sessile invertebrates. Excess material will decay harmlessly over time without any adverse consequences.
Easy to use and highly effective for your reef-keeping needs, Aiptasia-X provides a solution you are bound to seek out at one time or another in the life of your aquarium.
