Saw the video....I'm speechless in wowness 
Is any of the fishes biting you
I had this one damsel every time I put my hand in the tank ....wham she comes bites and runs back...to repeat again. It's a pinch twice I got spooked and hurt my elbow hitting on the egde of the tank as I yanked my hand out.
Be aware of the trigger fish, can give you a nasty bite.
Just a friendly warning.

If I have that much time, I will change all my rocks.
The problem is I don't have a place to keep my corals.

Haha. No fish biting at all.
They seems to know what I am doing down there.

In Canada, we have a unique solution for killing pest anemones on live rock. We put the rock outside in the winter for 24 hours. The bacteria and coraline algae are safe, but the anemones are completely wiped out.
The warm climate equivalent is to put the rock in the microwave one at a time, if they fit. The anemones contain water, so they are killed, while the coraline algae is fine.

broke but happy
Sir have to think about removing the rock and get a blow torch and burn the suckers
It should be the fastest and more effective way than squirting them with kalkwasser.
just rinse them off with saltwater after every burning session
I read someone did that without ill effect.

Good idea with regard to the torch. A heat gun may be another good tool once you drain the tank. There's also infrared soldering irons, paint strippers and portable heaters that may be useful.

Shawn. Thank you.
But the problem is I can't take all the rocks out. Most of them are attached by eco-putty.
And in the case I change all my rock. It will take too much time.
Too risky for my fishes and corals.

Lawrence. Thanks.
But I don't think I can remove all the rock.

hard work Chingchai , i hope you succeed it is very difficult to eliminate them if any fragments remain they will regenerate, if that happens i would say your best solution is to put all the lps corals in the refugium and introduce a butterfly fish that will eat majanos but not sps and then you can remove it by trapping it when you are satisfied they are eliminated from the tank and put the lps back , it would certainly be less work than this if this doesnt work but lets hope it does!!

You set the standard for what a great reef tank should look like. Thanks for the great build

chingchai,
I know you indicated earlier that you did not plan on using a laser, but I believe it could/would be a very useful tool. I've been doing extensive testing with extremely good results.
There is a great deal of data in including videos in the advanced topics area. While the early part of the thread is mostly debate on the use of lasers, the latter part contains video demonstrations and results....
Use of Lasers in Controlling Pest Algae and Corals
There are safety requirements (especially appropriate eye protection), but they are relatively easily managed and the laser delivers 100% kill rates in Aiptasia and Majano in seconds - even from outside of running tank.
