    Peppermint shrimp food?  Copper Banded Butterfly food? 
    Actually....aiptasia can create a decent natural filter as well...

    I have seen a few forums where people were going to set up a tank for them and see how big they could get them and such.

    I think it might be fun as a desk tank, get a berg nudi too and see where it goes from there, I'm sure further down the road I would have to remove a little bit of one or the other but /shrug
    Ya, I agree Eric, I remember seeing an article written about controlling nitrates in a tank and they were reflecting upon the fact that I guess earlier when reef tanks were coming around they suggested aptasia for nitrate control... heh
    Funny how times change..

    Go down to Pet's Playhouse. You should be able to buy some live rock with some aiptasia on it.
