Racoon butterfly to kill mojanos

[GSMguy]

i have a mojano anemone outbreak in my tank and my LFS has a small racoon butterfly that i would buy just for the mojanos
will it eat my clam? or carpet anmone or will it go straight for mojanos

Butterflies, beautiful as they are, are usually more trouble than the plague you get them for. They're extremely fragile, die on a bet, and are iffy about behavior toward corals and other things once their intended food source runs out. I don't know if peppermint shrimp eat mojanos, but they do keep aiptasia in check.

I tried threadfin butterflyfish (auriga butterflyfish) died in 4 days Mojo 1 Fish 0
I went back to the pet store and they gave me 6 P. shrimp, HEHE
Mojo 2 Fish & P.Shrimp 0
I bought a Copperbanded Butterfly (beaked coralfish) Per marine fishes by scott w, micheal -- most will eat glass anemones (Aiptasia spp.) and polychaete worms. I added him 3 days ago.
MOJO 3 Fish,Shrimp,& Fish 0.

I was also told try the raccoon butterfly but I think I'd rather pull the rock out and kill everything on it rather pay for something else that MIGHT eat it, if you know what I mean.

Also raccoons will eat corals and they feed at night.
