I tried a couple of things to get rid of these little pests. Does anyone have a good effective method to help control or get rid of glass anemones? I tried a racoon butterfly and peppermint shrimp. I was told that I could soak the rocks that are really covered in freshwater. This would kill anything growing on them. Does this include the coralline? Any input is appreciated. Thanks!:)
 
Two fairly effective methods include injecting them with kalkwasser paste or injecting them with boiling water. I use the kalk injections and it seems to work okay for me. Sometimes I have to go back and hit them a second time, but eventually they die.
