Aiptasia On Clam--How Do I Kill It?

[daniella3d]

shut down the pump so there is no current, make the clam close and then put some aiptasiaX on the aiptasia. Don't put the current back right away, just give it a few minutes. That's what I do for mine. I tried scraping it off but part of it remained on the shell and returned. My clam has a lot of sponge covering its shell, so there is room for aiptasia to hide.

It's in a bad place, seems like when the clam closes it takes the aiptasia with it. Looks like it's probably on the shell but right close to the mantle. How do I get kill of this thing without harming the clam?
