I second aptasia...you want to get rid of them quickly or they will take over. I just used super glue to cover one that was in a hole where i couldn't scrape it out easily.
 
Gsp weren't looking good anyways and those zoas were always closed anyway. I just eliminated both corals for the good of the whole tank
 
If aiptasia return, and they may, might want to try Aiptasia X which is basically Kalkwasser I believe to kill them in the tank.
 
I've heard that you can also inject lemon juice or kalk directly into them if they are in hard places where the rock can't be removed.
 
I can personally say that lemon juice did the trick for me.
