That's copperband butterfly, not coral banded, which is actually a shrimp.

I think most people here would discourage you from purchasing a difficult fish like a copperband just for aiptasia. Try what Alan, Deb, or Bob said, or see if you can get Berghia Verrucicornis, a nudibranch reported to eat Aiptasia spp. anemones.
