Never used them myself, and I don't recommend the use of them either. They only eat aiptasia, and once the aiptasia is gone, they starve to death. The only time I'd say it's okay to use them is if you catch them and bring them back to the LFS or pass them on to someone else who can use them, or else they will just end up dying in your tank very quickly.

I haven't tried berghias yet but I'm about to.If you have exhausted other methods like I have then give them a try.I've tried peppermints and injecting them,there are too many aiptasia in my system to get to them all.

Yeah mine too way too much in there. Im still wondering if it will come back when the critters are done eating kinda like what happens when the fish get done eating it.

There are always the possibility of aips returning.Peppermints,in that case would be good preventive measures.
