It is, there is several methods available to deal with them. Personally I like aipatsia_x for small numbers.

Berghia Nudi's

Berghia nudibranchs safest way. I breed and sell them to other people battling aiptasia in their tank.

There is risks when trying other methods, like aiptasia x, file fish, and peppermint shrimp. Each has more or less risks, but berghia nudibranchs only eat aiptasia and don't harm anything else except for your wallet but its a small price you pay for keeping your corals safe.

For just a few, F-Aptasia as it covers the pest completely, then, in a week, just pluck it out intact.

For infestation, a copperband will eradicate these pests within a week.

I have had Aptasia in my 300g, Twice. I Have some in my sump right now, but I don't mind it there. I have added Berghia's to my DT Twice, they eat the Aptasia then I guess they die, because I never see them, with no ill effects I might add.
