HAHAH THATS AMAZING! actually i have heard somewhere about someone selling aiptasia. well i would say if people some how want to buy them, thatd be a great business. all profit. you could probably even get your first aiptasia for free to.
whats wrong with selling aptasia? i shoulda though of that myself. all my berghia starved to death cuz i ran out myself. also maybe some people would like to raise the buggers.

i agree.. and that was my point too..
my problem is that it should state "they are for specific purposes and are generally considered a nuisance."

I agree Rob, the problem with this ad on ebay is that someone who is a newb could potentially buy these not knowing what they are and how much of a nuisance they can be.

not only that, if the person that buys the aiptasia doesnt visit fourms, or look for info on the web, they think they have a coral, and when it starts spreading they are thinking they have something to frag, and sell it to some other unsuspecting person. or take it to one of the LFS here for credit. which most stores know what it is, one of the ones here apparently dont as its in just about every one of their display tanks.
Hobbyist control the market whether they realise it what.
At my LFS, the tanks are generally aiptasia free. But the store does have a tank that are rich in aiptasias. I know the owner and he has confirmed to me that he keeps those aiptasias because of people with the Berghia nudibrachs or the stubborn Copperband Butterfly. He does not sell and advise against the nudi and the butterflyfish, but are often spoken ill of in the local clubs and forums for having aiptasias. The owner has told me that everytime he eliminated his aiptasias, someone would show up with a starved Copperband Butterfly or Nudi. Why is it that people show up with livestock that they can't keep at his store expecting a miracle, and yet other customers complain about not buying from him because he has aiptasias?
