Tailored Aquatics - Aiptasia Destroyer for sure.
It will clear them up fast, they sell bottles at redcoral in calgary for about 18$ i think.

If you can get the LR out take a blow torch to it, if your tank is cycling it wont make that much of a difference.

When you inject the aiptasia with lemon/vinegar don't tear the anemone apart. Just inject it and it should die.

The recipe I use with great success is 1 tsp of calcium hydroxide mixed with 2 tbls of tap water mixed together and then boiled in the microwave for 30 sec. Use a plastic syringe to squirt a bit at the mouth of the aiptasia and they draw it in and disappear for good. It took me about a week to get rid of a really bad infestation in a 72g tank and after 2 years they never came back.

Not sure if it will work long term or not, but I have covered Aiptasia with reef epoxy, including filling the hole. I have tried the other products, but have had the aiptasia come back on me.

Had good success just making a slurry of kalk and the water from thawing some mysis, then feeding the aiptasia using a syringe. Peppermint shrimp are then good to get the ones you can't reach to feed.
