I would think so, especially keeping them in the sun for a week or more. It killed everything off several rocks when I switched to my current tank. Might have to cycle the rocks again.

Cycling the rock is no big deal, about 10-15 pounds. Would be adding back 2 my DT that has roughly 130 pounds.

Well they're backkkkk and :mad:. I have no idea of what I'm going to do. Thinking of another file fish but my last 1 didn't touch them as he liked what I feed much better. Peppermint shrimp were the same.

My file fish went after coral polyps so I got rid of him. I put 6 peppermint shrimp in a 300 gallon system and they got rid of most of them. I have found Joes Juice works better than Aiptasia X. For some reason the peppermint shrimp have not gotten rid of 3 of them. I have left them to see if they multiply and I think the shrimp are not letting new one grow.

Not yet and that's really been due to cost. Have looked at here and there.
They're currently $5 each at Salty Underground. How big is your tank? I have 15 coming on Friday and they were $110 shipped.
