Identification of things on a reef

I added new live rock and had all aiptasia dissapear after years of war with them, id try biological control like a nudibranch manual/chemical removal just doesn't work well enough. But ya be ready for a battle they're not easy to get rid of.

Welcome to R2R. Hope you sort the aiptasia problem. Lots of knowledgeable and helpful people here who will support and advise you when needed.
 
I started with one, then a few. Tried everything to keep them under control, all the pastes, chemicals, nudi's, 16 peppermint shrimps, Filefish. They just exploded out of control, had to remove all my rocks, sterilize them. they were also growing between zoa polyps. Cleaned out the fuge, filter box, replaced all lines and hoses and cleaned overflow weirs. Had to frag my coral colonies that were 6 years old. Good luck with yours. 75 gallon with 5 gallon fuge and 10 gallon sump.
Had them under control for a couple years until I transferred everything but the sand from 46 bowfront to 75 gallon, that is when they over ran my tank.
