Getting rid of Aitapsia infestation

I got a syringe from Walgreens and filled it with lemon juice. It worked great. Once I injected the lemon juice the were pretty much gone. I did like 5-9 per day cause I was told that lemon juice could have an effect on your Ph, if too much was being used.
 
Just throwing it out there with the Matted File Fish. I bought two for an outbreak and they ate a single Aiptasia then started eating my LPS, acans specifically. Right now I'm going down the Berghia Nudibranch route.
 
It gets to a point where you need to take a more drastic approach.
Remove those things that they attach to, inject where possible, pull where possible.

Everyone above has great ideas and they work....but when you got rid of them all, you need to inspect the stuff you put in your tank...the LFS is famous for giving out free apastia on rocks or inside the rocks or bottoms.....it's a tuff problem but persistence will pay off...
 
I've always had good results with a copperband butterfly. They're much prettier than a filefish too. :)
