They look fairly in the open, just hold a few ice cubes one them and they will start to walk like a bta. Then just pick them up and toss them. No mess, no more mojanos

+1 Mojanos are not nearly as hard to kill as aptasia.  They are really a lot like mini BTA's highly photosynthetic too so they will also move to escape shade and will die off quickly in the dark.  Where Aptasia can adapt to absorb nutrients from the water column.  I had hundreds in an old fish tank...nice bright yellow ones... when it was time to use that rock in a reef, I just put it in a few totes with flow and heat but no lights and they all crawled up the side of the totes to try to get as much light as they could then all died off.

Took the rock out put it under the sink and just pryed the little bastards out with a screw driver. Rinsed the rock really well. Back into the tank. Easy peasy lemon squeezy

you should see the 2 or 3 big aiptasia I have.  Can't do a thing about them because they're on my clam.  Must have been hiding under the mantle and growing.  Kind of hard to get to them, I may have to resort to chemicals (and that's always my last last last option).
