Having an infestation of this type soft coral, brown colored looking sympodium type. But grown and infest like GSP. They can take a nuke of kalk paste and come back within a couple weeks. They sprout all over the rocks like Aiptasia would.

not my picture but someone else who has the same issue.
 
Hard to to from pic but look like aiptasia. Get matted filefish, easy to catch if they coral munch and 50-75% of them chow on this stuff
 
not Aipts.. had a file fish take care of that scourge. only for it to turn on my Z's and P's collection right after.
 
here's other pictures found her on RC.

I've had these before. I just assumed they were aiptasia, but real tiny. Hot water and lemon juice didn't work. Superglue did the trick.
 
I nuked them last night and left the solution on for about 30mins or so before turning back pumps on. We'll see if the b@star@rds come back.
 
Superglue. Suffocate them.

+1 (sort of)

If it's just that small patch you could just smother them with some epoxy. Really disturb them first though. You want them to kind of shrink up before laying down that epoxy. GL.
 
came home most gone ( Fingers cross they don't return ) just got a small patch left that hid under a frag, gonna nuke that tonight
