peppermint shrimp woked for me.
the trick is to get a true peppermint shrimp, because there shrimps that look like them but not eat apteisia

I wanted to vote twice.
One tank has no Aiptasia as my CBB chows down on them. The other tank does have them because I can't put the CBB in there as he is a clam eater. I can keep the easily accessed Aiptasia at bay with kalk paste but the tough to get at ones are always there.

raccoon butterfly worked great but started picking at other stuff after

This should be a checklist poll. I used a combo of nudibranche, peppermint shrimp and aptasia X due to the volume of growth I had. Low and behold, I won after 6 months of battling!

Could not vote as another type of fish was not an option.

I used the Matted Filefish Acreichthys tomentosus
