Sorry, I didn't see that you have lionfish. The only fish I know that eats
aiptasia is Chelmon rostratus (copperband butterfly)

I have a 125 gallon FOWLR tank. Nearly every surface is now covered with
tiny brown anemones -- we're talking only a few millimeters across. I
don't know if they will grow very large. If so, I will have a real problem
at some point.

Is there some sort of invertebrate or crab that eats these? I already
have three types of hermits, some turbos, and a conch, and they aren't
making a perceptible dent in the matter. I would consider a fish to take
care of the problem, but it would have to be compatible with the others.
I have a powder-blue, a large damsel, and two small lions, and I'm
considering getting an angel.
