Found one of these on a rock I got from LFS. Didn’t think much of it, now after 4 months there’s 2. They’re about the size of a small zoa polyp.

My opinion? Safest way is take the rock out, grab a pair of pliers and cut the rock from under it taking the majano out.

If not, maybe aptasia x would work

I’ve never had them but most Aiptasia solutions should work.

As far as Aiptasia control goes, F-Aiptasia has been my favorite product. Gets them every time and I haven’t had any big spreading events. Just rinse water through the syringe and wipe off the stirrer with a paper towel to be able to reuse it in the future.
Personally, I prefer solutions to problems that don’t require removing or breaking up my rock.
