    FYI, you usually wont see aiptasia until its too late . . . if it feels threatened or is moved small ones can disappear and wont be visible until there comfortable in your tank.

    i use aiptasia x for them d. others use joes juice, or boiling water injected into the root , but your have to capture the aip when it lets go that way. aip x just inject it into the mouth and they shrivel and die

    What's your live stock list so far? It looks like you have quite a few fish, one being a tang. Make sure you don't add fish too quickly and exceed your bioload capacity.
