Have talked on here about aiptasia, there are probably 30-40 aiptasia on my rocks, after looking at many articles, i’m thinking about removing the rocks, cleaning off the aiptasia and putting everything back together. Feasible, to difficult, thoughts? My tank is 30 gallons, 6-8 live rock, started about 8 months ago, is this is feasible are there articles i could reference

Be careful since it can grow on basically anything... I have had good luck with peppermint shrimp.
was going to buy peppermint shrimp but was told they don’t help with the larger aiptasia and you can’t combine them with nudibranch, because they eat them

You could epoxy or kalk paste over the larger ones, then add peppermints. Even if the larger ones survive the epoxy or kalk, they won't be big anymore, and the peppermints could handle them.
