Aiptasia are actually pretty amazing how they survive in even the worse conditions, pretty bullet proof!

I have a bucket out the back of the shop with no light, no heater, no flow and it has had the same water in for round 3 months, anything else marine would be dead by now but the aips are going strong! the berghia holding tank that i have has loads added to it ready and i just go in every few days and batter them with a screwdriver to make them release their spawn!

LOL - yeh I sunk one rock in ICE water to see if they would shift and nothing.  Put it back in the tank, so from 0 to 25 in second and the aips are out and about.  

Gonna put them in the dark until the berghia come to get them to release...
