not hurricane related. kills aiptasia/majano/similar pests, safely. see vids.
here’s the tool. made by dustin, part of that DEAL OF THE CENTURY!
my aiptasia was too quick and ran into his hole and too close to my surrounding zoas, so i had to kalk him, but here’s the zapper killing xenias that i don’t like or need, essentially the came way that you can kill individual pests or groups of ugly infesting zoas or anything similar you really don’t want
this vid isn’t close up enough and really doesn’t give you a good view until 40 seconds. it’s just a phenomenal way to get rid of this type of infestation/pest/bstrd. may be a long upload, but if you have aiptasia, here’s the way to get rid of them! guaranteed! the gas bubbles are not electricity, btw.
Paul, did Dustin make one for you or did you make one your self? I know he has a forum on another site that show how to make one, but I never get around to make one myself. I can use one of those.
cool whats the smoke like coming from it? the bubbles from the electrical current

Hydrogen Gas. Byproduct of electrolsis in salt water
Is just me, but i don’t see anything happening but what look like some smoke in the water. What are you trying accomplish?
Some one said it’s Hydrogen Gas, why you need to blow it in reef tank?
Rosti, it’s a some sort of electrical device to get rid of pests, especially aiptasia. You can buy one or make one your self. Dustin made one and he was explaining how to make one from another site.

Thanks A, ok. Now it makes no sense at all.
i killed the xenia on the rock in front. they recommendation is to scrape the metal tip across the pest, which kills it, rather than stabbing it.
Be careful of killing off to much xenia at once it does have ammonia in it that could be released when you kill it.
