Ok so my tank is basicaly getting over run by aptaisia and they have alreadys killed a few corals. I have tried joes juice and it does does kill them but only for a few days and then they start to grow back in the same spots. I need to know what else to do to get rid of these things quick. Should i try joes juice again? tell me what has worked best for you

someone on reef central said you can get rid of them by injecting boiling water into them? maybe with some lemon juice?

I have tried just about everything when I had my infestation. I found pickling lime (kalkwasser) mixed into a slightly runny paste worked best. I would get a 5cc syringe load it up, move my hand above the little bugger making sure to move slow so it's body was still out of it's hole. Let a little bit of the kalk mixture out making sure it hits the "head" of the Aiptasia. It will immediately react. I then paste him into his little hole with a couple squirts. It never fails to kill them, you just need to apply it every time you see them. Eventually they went away.
