The butterfly will eat in the following order (probably):
1) Feather dusters
2) Majanos
3) LPS and soft corals

Complete eradication of manjanoes is not necessary. Your more important corals are probably upfront and accessible. If so, you can kill the encroaching anemones that are accessible and leave the ones in the back as filter feeding detrivores. If your goal is to remove 100% and be rid of the nusiance then I would suggest cleaning the rocks manually. An all day project. My main question to you is if you get the butterfly and it eats more than manjanoes, what will you do to get him out?

thats what I was worried about. I keep all of the majanos from the front of the tank...they just keep showing up and thought I would see if there was a good way to get them. Not looking good so far!
