Camel shrimp vs AEFW

[Siebo]

Has anyone trying these against aefw? There are reports of them going after the eggs and fw's on other forums. However, there are reports of them eating the acros if left in long term.

Oh I don't have them thank god! Just doing some research since a few on here have reported to have them.

Camel shrimp will eat sps too.

Correct! You can't put them in the DT but they have been used in QT tanks to control AEFW per the article

Can't leave the coral in a QT with them for very long, once the aefw are depleted enough, Acro meat is next on the menu. I think you set up a tank with them and dip the coral in it for an hour or less and then pull it back out and place another coral in.
