peppermint's have always worked for me, some people have not had the same luck.
I killed a few mushrooms with KALK and a syringe with a needle, Just try to inject the KALK into the tissue   Only my experience

I have used a syringe and lemon juice just be careful it can mess with your PH if you use to much.

 seriously, kalk paste has always worked for me and it just adds calcium to your tank, although too much can also reek havoc with your ph

I was told and actually read a book that says to get rid of Aptasia you tank like a frogspwn or similer and by holding the base of it(frogspawn)let its tissue touch the aptasia for a few seconds and it should kill it....Whether it works or not is another thing.I just read it
