I've seen a couple in my FOWLR tank. Came in with the LR. Nuked 'em with Joe's Juice.
Being only a couple, I wouldn't consider my experience with aptasia in that tank an "issue", but I suppose it is possible.
As for an FO tank....I wouldn't think they'd be a problem because of the abscence of LR.

HTH and cheers,

Peppermint shrimp are hit or miss for aptasia control. What might work if you are set on peppers is to hit the pests with some Joe's juce/vinegar/or hot water & then the shrimp often cleans up the leftovers.

Vinegar? Do you have to take the rock out to do this?
By the way this is a FOWLR
