Not as many as me

FWIW, they're FAR easier to deal with, then aptasia. I've rid countless tanks of them. The solution is easy. Irritate them to close up, which makes their foot firmer. Then simply take a dental tool, and get it under their foot, and pull. 90% of the time, they come right off for me. Sometimes they rip, but I scrap the remains off. Funny thing is, my sexy shrimp will follow me around and clean up any scraps that are left behind One disclaimer, if they're in a hole, obviously this method won't work. In that case, I end up coverring the hole with super glue

I hit mine with a torch. Snap, crackle, pop. Just like the little dudes on rice crispies say! Turned a bit of my rock white, but oh well, no more majano!
