Majano anemones
 
I seem to be getting over run with these pests in my 230g. I have tried Joes juice, kalk paste and hot water on them with little or no success. Has anyone had any luck trying to kill these dudes? Is there some kind of biological control that will gobble them up?

I have believe I have one as well. Just wondering I am planning on trying this but have not yet done so. Is it possible to pluck it with tweezers and take it out? Also what if you just stab it a few times with something should that kill it?

I found a writeup stating the double saddle butterfly http://www.seahorse-nw.com/Predators.html (you'll have to scroll down a fair ways).

Went through the same thing, Joes juice worked for me!
Joe's Juice did npt work for the 1 or 2 Aptaisia I had though!

Can you get a peppermint shrimp to put in the tank? For a tank your size, you might need a couple. When I had majano, I got and and it worked out fine. A copper banded butterfly fish could work too.
