I have some aiptasia in one of my tanks. I have used Aiptasia-X, it works temporarily but then the aiptasia just grows back. I don't have time to do repeat injections every week so I was thinking of trying peppermint shrimp.

I have two cleaner shrimp in the tank right now, also some zoanthids. I am not sure if the cleaner shrimp will try to eat the peppermint shrimp. And I am pretty sure the peppermint shrimp will eat the zoanthids.

Maybe I will try the injecting lemon juice with a sharp needle into the body of the aiptasia thing first.
