Red Sea Aiptasia-X 60ml

Description

Red Sea Aiptasia-X 60ml is highly effective formula to treat the pest anemones such as Aiptasia, known to effect almost every reef aquarium. Aiptasia, are often introduced via live rock or corals and can quickly reach plague proportions in marine aquariums.

Aiptasia quickly retract into holes in the rock and release planula (larvae) in to the aquarium which can rapidly develop in to full anemones. Additionally, any part of the anemone’s body left attached to a rock can regenerate into a full anemone.

Affecting almost every reef aquarium, Aiptasia (otherwise known as glass anemones), are often introduced through live rock or corals and can quickly plague your marine aquaria, destroying corals and other marine livestock with devastating effects. Existing treatments are often unsuccessful as when threatened Aiptasia quickly retracts into holes in the rock and releases planula (larvae) in the aquarium which can rapidly develop into full anemones. Additionally, any part of the anemone’s body left attached to a rock can regenerate into a full anemone.

Many treatments can therefore lead to a proliferation rather than the removal of Aiptasia. Research and development carried out by Red Sea has led to the development of Aiptasia-X, a product which overcomes the problems usually associated with Aiptasia treatments thanks to its unique formula.

Red Sea Aiptasia-X consists of natural components which form a uniquely thick, adhesive material. Instead of causing the Aiptasia to feel threatened, the unique formula is sensed as food, thereby stimulating the anemone to expand and ingest the material.

Red Sea’s new 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 you 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.

The Red Sea Aiptasia-X 60ml kit includes a 60ml bottle of material, plus an applicator set consisting of a syringe with two lock-on applicator tips, enabling treatment of even the most inaccessible of anemones.

Dosage: 60ml provided in the kit will treat approximately 100 Aiptasia anemones.
