Aptasia problem

Lately I treat the tank with Red Sea Aptasia X
I noticed that I have lots of BIG Aptasia batches which I can't reach.
I tried adding peprmint shrimp with no luck.
Any idea what should I do or add to remove the Aptasia?
The tank is a 180g mixed reef.

Thanks for your advise.
 
Glue over it or its opening. Peppermint shrimp only eat smaller ones.

I used to use lemon juice in a syringe and needle.

Go in strait to its neck so it can't retract and inject a bit.

Thank you all for the reply.
What should I do about the ones I can't get to?
 
I nearly forgot, you can also use Kalkwasser in the same way, but it can raise the Ph so you have to be careful.

Getting to deep ones is a different issue. If the heads are shown try to use the Kalkwasser or lemon juice strait into its mouth. Remember, if you accidentally touch them they'll retract.

Berghia Nudibrances is the only way to get them all, it is expensive and takes a long time, but is not fool proof.
