Maxspect Aiptasia Control (100mL / 3.4 fl oz)

Targeted, Fast-Acting Elimination of Pest Aiptasia Anemones

Pest Aiptasia anemones spread rapidly, sting prized corals, and can quickly overrun rockwork if left unchecked. Maxspect Aiptasia Control offers a precise, non-invasive treatment engineered to eradicate nuisance glass anemones right in your display—without disrupting delicate reef chemistry or harming neighboring corals.

Unlike watery chemical treatments that scatter in the water column or provoke the anemone to rapidly retract and release planulae spores, Maxspect’s formula utilizes a dense, adhesive-like paste that triggers an active feeding response, breaking down the pest anemone from the inside out within minutes.

Why It Works

• Stimulates Feeding Response: Formulated with an attractant that entices the Aiptasia to actively ingest the paste rather than retreating into the rockwork.

• Rapid Internal Dissolution: Once ingested, the concentrated solution works rapidly, breaking down the internal structure of the anemone in minutes to prevent regeneration.

• Heavy, Non-Drifting Paste: The high-viscosity consistency prevents the mixture from blowing away in residual flow, staying localized directly on the target anemone.

• 100% Reef-Safe Chemistry: Residual paste harmlessly dissolves into the water column as calcium and hydroxide ions, which are completely safe for corals and invertebrates and even contribute trace support for calcification.

• Complete Application Kit: Includes a targeted syringe and two interchangeable needle applicator tips for pinpoint placement in tight rock crevices.

What’s Included in the Box

• 1x 100mL (3.4 fl oz) Bottle of Maxspect Aiptasia Control

• 1x Graduated Application Syringe

• 2x Precision Needle Nozzles

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Turn Off Flow: Shut off powerheads, wavemakers, and return pumps to create calm, still water.

2. Shake Well: Vigorously shake the bottle to ensure the paste is completely uniform.

3. Draw Solution: Attach a needle nozzle to the syringe and draw up the required amount of solution.

4. Target the Anemone: Slowly guide the tip near the oral disk of the Aiptasia. Gently depress the plunger to dispense a small bead over the mouth and tentacles.

5. Let It Work: Allow the anemone to ingest the paste. Leave aquarium water flow turned off for 15–20 minutes to allow the formula to fully dissolve the pest before restoring circulation.

6. Clean Applicator: Rinse the syringe and nozzle with warm freshwater or RO/DI water after use to prevent clogs.
