aiptasia

I have found a few small Aiptasia on my live rock. I have read several idea's on getting rid of it. So which is best..Peppermint Shrimp/Aiptasia X/other. Since I am new I am chicken about playing scientist on my tank.

So advise is greatly appreciated.

Also how many P.Shrimp in a 29 gallon Biocube if this si the way to go?
I have in my tank at this time
2 clown's
1 cleaner shrimp
Fire Goby
Royal Gramma
Mushrooms
poly's

Thank You

 

If you can reach all of them, Aiptasia X or Kalk paste works well.

Peppermint Shrimp will eradicate them; However, they've also been known to attack smaller, short-tentacle anemones and fleshy LPS corals occasionally.

 

I used lemon juice with some success but finally got some Aptasia X and it has worked very well. The bottle should last for a long time and was not too expensive. Nice to just keep on hand.

 

For that size tank I'd go with aiptasia x. I have a deep 150 and couldn't reach them all and got 5 peppermints. They seem to be helping so far, 3 weeks in.
I saw an aiptasia that was half eaten today, hope they usually eat it all

 

Thank you... off to the LFS to pickup some aiptasia x. Here is a photo and you can see one of the aiptasia in the lower center just above the arches live rock. There are 3 that I can see. I had just turned on my lights so my mushrooms are still sleeping! This tank has been set up since January 1st. More live rock is my next step!! Ignor the power cord I need to figure out how to hide it. Sooner or later going to get the good power head.
