To be safe soak for weeks in peroxide. By the time you killed the aiptasia the bacteria would be dead too. Even then a small piece of aiptaisa might still be alive

Curious to know how nudi's didn't work because that is the ONLY thing they eat.
Mine worked on the small ones but the nudis don't seem to touch the big ones. I still have 3 left but I just leave them alone and so far no outbreak. If I have another outbreak I will kill the large ones and then introduce the nudis again. They did work great on all but the very big ones. :)

what if the rock I taken out and a quick muriatic acid bath is done. then washed and put back in. I wouldn't think the acid would kill all the bacteria down deep in the rock that quick.
