Aiptasia sp. – natural food for Berghia snails
Aiptasia anemones are among the most common pests in saltwater aquariums. They reproduce rapidly and uncontrollably , can displace corals , and even harm other invertebrates with their powerful stinging cells.
Once introduced – usually via live rock, new coral offshoots or imports – they are difficult to completely remove.
Optimal food for Berghia
Since Aiptasia are the only food source for Berghia nudibranchs ( Berghia stephanieae ), we as a company in the EU offer live Aiptasia for permanent feeding .
This way, you can continue to care for your Berghia in the long term or pass it on even after successfully combating an Aiptasia infestation.
