I have a nice fat Peppermint, never visible during the day. I have NO APTASIA in my display. One or two in the sump though. I don't think the Peppermints will do anything about larger Aptasia, but they sure prevent new ones from growing. So for an Aptasia problem, blast all visible/large ones with whatever you find works; kalk, vinegar, hot water, ect., then add 1 or 2 Pep. Shrimp per 50 Gallons. Using that formula should get rid of them for as long as the Peppermints live.
