I read the above article and it suggests adding a Chaetodon ulietensis
Pacific double-saddle butterflyfish to remove the majano anemones. I've ordered Joe's Juice, its in the mail. But I like the butterfly fish, just never had one before. I'm trying to search on them to see what they eat, etc. Anyone have them successfully? And can you keep them in your reef without a decimation of my corals? I have acropora, zoa's, two clams. The clams concern me the most I think w/the butterfly's.
 
Boiling water in a turkey baster for large groups in the clear from keepers, or in a hypo for individuals near good livestock. Works 100%
 
I've used Racoon b/f in the past as well as a Klein b/f and they did eat all the majanos and aptasia's. But they also mowed down all the palythoa polyps.
So I would think that if they go after one type of frilly looking food in your tank, that when it is gone they will start looking for another.
