Does anyone have any experience with a fish (or possibly other creature) that will rid my tank of majano anemones? Any info is appreciated...
 
Not sure about what fish will eat them, I think I remember reading that a Copperband B'Fly will eat them.

But I removed the ones I had by injecting them with a high concentration of Kalkwasser every day, until they were gone. I think it took about a week. Worked extremely well for me.
 
Peppermint shrimp will eat aiptasia, maybe they will also eat Majano
I wouldn't bother with a Copperband, not hardy fish and other Butterflys are too small for your tank
You could try Kalkwasser or Joes juice also
 
I don't know if peps will eat them, but it wouldn't hurt to try it out. Joe's Juice or Kalk would be the best way to rid them if possible, IMO.
 
I've had good luck with racoon butterflies. If you're able to manually inject them with dilute muriatic acid, that would work as well but watch your pH in a smaller tank. If its a larger tank with many anemones, the racoon would be the way to go.
It also helps to keep the new racoon in a separate tank, then introduce some small rock with the anemones on it, and train them to eat them. I've done that to the point where the racoon would start to dance as I approached the tank with a new rock.
