if you have a smaller tank 20g or under, you can just grab 3-4 peppermint shrimps and they will take care of them. You must not overfeed your tank though. It worked for me when I had a 10g tank.

I agree peppermint shrimp are great and look after the aiptasia, but as mentioned don't over feed them.
