NT Labs Marine Anti-Aiptasia

NT Labs Marine Anti-Aiptasia

NT Labs Marine Anti-Aiptasia is a contact solution for removing Aiptasia and Majano anemones from marine aquariums. It is made for reef and marine keepers in South Africa who want to get rid of these pests without adversely affecting water quality.

About Aiptasia

Aiptasia are polyp-like creatures that usually arrive in a marine aquarium on corals or live rock. They look unsightly, and they can harm corals by outcompeting them for space and food. Because Anti-Aiptasia is applied directly to the pest, it works as a targeted contact treatment. It also works on the closely related Majano anemones.

Key Benefits

• Contact solution designed to eliminate Aiptasia in marine aquariums
• Also works on the closely related Majano anemones
• Pesticide-free formula
• Does not adversely affect water quality
• Applied one pest at a time, so you choose exactly where it goes
• Skimmers and UV filtration can stay switched on during treatment

How to Use

• Shake the bottle briefly until Anti-Aiptasia becomes cloudy.
• Assemble the tip and syringe, then fill the syringe with Anti-Aiptasia.
