Any success with fish to eat massive Majano infestation?

[skip0211]

I have a large SPS tank, loaded with Majano’s.. how it got this bad is a long story and not worthy of repeating here.. my question is, what fish if any have been successful in attacking and eating these coral killers..

I know copper band butterfly fish will destroy aptasia…I suspect they would go for majano as well. They can be extremely difficult to get eating prepared foods, so having a population of a natural food source is actually helpful in acclimating them. I think my cb butterfly refused to eat anything I fed him for a month, but never looked thin thanks to the aptasia and other microfauna he foraged.

I've not heard of any fish consistently eating them, and I don't believe there is any berghia nudibranch equivalent for them- at least not that I've heard of or seen. I've mostly seen folks approach them with manual treatments, but I can't speak from experience

Acreichthys tomentosus-Bristletail filefish according to many is the only creature which is interested in Majanos, however apparently not all specimens are eating them.
I didn’t try it myself, tried mechanical, chemical methods, laser, majano wand, but eventually had to brake tank up 3 months ago.
My majanos were under control when I had bubble tip anemones, but they were wandering around the tank so much and killing other corals, that I got rid of them too.
