Need help with Aiptasia

[ridomart]

There has to be an easy way to get rid of Aiptasia. I used Joe's juice & it works But everytime I look in the tank at night I find more little ones. Anybody tell me about peperment shrimp or a fish that eats them and not corals?

I've read today, on several other posts that peppermint shrimp help control smaller aiptasia. If you have time check them out. Knock wood, I haven't had any in my tank!!!!!! Sounds like they are a pain.

get some peppermint shrimp, their great!
a copperband butterfly will rid them too, but be careful because the will eat your coral also.
