    Definitely. Every reef should have a peppermint or two for insurance anyway.

    Some people say lemon juice or hot water injected into them will do the trick. Seeing as you only have one and Im not sure if either of these methods seal the mouth to prevent them spreading. I wouldnt try them.

    Do any of your local stores carry aptasia x? It will kill it instantly and prevent them from spreading.

    they prolly have it. they might ask like twenty bucks for it. thats what ive noticed about that place. they really mark up the dry goods! which is ok, i like supporting the local shops.
