Aqua Medic Shot Extension

The Shot Extension is a syringe with extension used for spot feeding corals and marine invertebrates, or to kill aiptasia and other nuisance organisms. It’s 29 inches in length including the syringe. Aqua Medic’s Shot Extension comes with three replacement tips which concentrates the solution to a small area for better accuracy and control.

How to use it

At about 29 inches including the syringe, the extension reaches deep into a reef tank without you having to put your arm in the water. For spot feeding, mix the food with a little tank water, switch off pumps and powerheads for a few minutes so it is not swept away, then approach slowly and release small amounts just above the polyps. For aiptasia and other nuisance organisms, apply the treatment directly to each pest according to that product’s own directions. The three replacement tips help you keep the dose concentrated on a small area. Rinse the syringe and tubing well in fresh water after every use, and ideally keep one for feeding and another for treatments so pest products never end up in coral food.
