    its pretty dang close the the same thing!!! you can add a little bit of oyster egg or some juice from thawed mysis shrimp with the kalkawasser paste and this "tricks" the aptasia into ingesting the paste. I have never injected them. you just give them a good coat of the paste and it melts them away!!!!!

    I like my kalkwasser paste. It does the job, and can be mixed into the consistency for any particular place. Everyone has their own way, and if it works for you it's a great way! I'm a penny watcher, so I like to do as much as I can without spending all the time. If I go in an LFS for "just one thing", I come out with $200 or more less in my wallet. lol

    So I take it that is your site you linked to? I'm looking over the site now. Interesting. Another Florida site is always welcome.

    1. 1 tsp. pickling lime - food grade calcium hydroxide
    2. 2 tbls. tap water.

    boil water and lime in microwave for 40 sec.
    keep closed plastic container in cool place.
    You will need a vet syringe from a pet store that sells vaccinations

    This mixture comes out of the needle very thick. You do not need to inject the Aiptasia. Just release a small amount on to the aiptasia and it will take it in. This mixture seems to stick to the anemone, but it does not stick to the other inverts. We also use this mixture on problem hair algae

    I found this recipe it really works and it is cheap.I have used it several time in my tank. The pickling lime is Kalkwasser, and you do not have to inject them to kill them. When they go back in a hole shoot the mixture in the hole with them.



    Here is the detailed recipe .I have to agree with the other that have used it it works and its cheap and u DO NOT have to feed them to kill them with this recipe .When they go back in to there hole spray the paste in the hole with them they are died .I have killed many this way.
