I do but shipping to Edmonton would be rather expensive for just one. Have you tried Blue World? I seem to remeber hearing that they had some a while back.

I picked up some Joe's Juice this past weekend in Calgary. Killed all 4 Aptasia on the first go. You just kind of feed it to them (at least thats what the instructions said). Although I found it kind of hard with the smaller ones so I just squirted it in their general direction haha.

aptasia
 
if you only have a couple-don't use berghia.a berghia will eat 1 aptasia a day and within 2 weeks will starve to death-good waste of money-mix up some kalkwasser into a thick paste and gently squirt it on the aptasia with a seringe-make sure you cover the base as well as that's where the daughter cells are.i've also injected the aptasia with lemon juice-works great-but again you have to worry about the daughter cells
