Filefish and Copperband

[PurpleCarpet]

So I purchased an Aiptasia eating filefish and a copperband at the same time to rid my tank of Aiptasia. Now I'm in a bit of a pickle, I had easily over a hundred Aiptasia and now they've been decimated. The pickle is that I've now lost my hammers, frogspawns and torches along with my zoas and my GSP have retreated. My BTA seems to be picked on as well since he doesn't out much and has gone smaller in size. The problem is I can't figure out who is the culprit. The funny thing is my mushrooms haven't been touched and thank goodness since I have bounce mushrooms all over. I can't find it in me to get rid of either one but would like help with fixing this problem without having to get rid of either one.

I have a CBB and he might have eaten aptasia at first but no longer and they have gotten out of control. He's never touched any of my corals, could be because he's well fed on black and white worms and LRS. I added Berghia Nudibranch for aptasia control and if they don't work I'll get a filefish. I've heard of the filefish going rouge once the aptasia is gone and chowing down on the coral. My guess would be the filefish, that's why I'm hoping the Berghia do their thing.

Thank you for the info. I'm inclined to think it's him as well but I feel bad getting rid of him since he did such a darn good job at killing them all. Perhaps I'll just keep him and try to beef him up on frozen.
