Ridding many small aiptasia form rubble

[jcm1229]

I have many aiptasia on the rubble rock in the front and corners of my tank. Although I like having the rubble there, I can do without it for a while. I was thinking about giving all this rubble a good long kalk paste bath or just letting it "air dry" in a bucket. I assume that these methods will work - any comments or other suggestions??

I have always had imidiat success with pepperment shrimp.

Although I have had success in the past with peppermints ridding my aiptasia, they have also dicimated my sandbed as well. I wouldn't treat nice big pieces of rock this way, but this is rubble.

Just looking for comments on what's best to do in this case.

Thanks!

I'd leave them in a bucket with no water for a day or two. That should kill every living thing on the rock.
