I've used an old 1ml syringe that came with a Salifert test kit to inject kalk into them. Stick in it's mouth if possible.

Don't hold your breath on peppermint shrimp. They do not touch aiptasia in my tank. Anyone I've spoken with agrees it is a hit and miss on whether they will eat it. I am waiting for an order of bergia nudis.

turkey baister/boiling hot water.....worked for me a couple times....but you may have to do it for a couple days, and obviously watch not to directly hit surrounding corals/inverts.
