Have aptasia that is not going away with Aptasia x. Want to try Berghia but I have a coral banded shrimp. Will it eat the Berghia? Could I keep the shrimp in a breeder box for a bit? 54 gallon

Get either a Klein or Copperband butterfly and the fish will keep them in check if they can’t get to all of them to extirpate them completely.

Tried "killing" the individual heads only to see them spread even more. Tried a butterflyfish, it "almost" got rid of the aiptasia and then turned its attention to the rest of the soft corals eventually killing an anemone... Berghia might be the only true (expensive) final answer.
