i wouldnt adjust the rocks, it will
disturb too much of the tank. i have the
same problem with what i thought is a
damsel, if you will take a peek at one of
my last posts. i mention that in teh
night time i think the peppies are taking
care of the aptasias, since im feeding
minimally they are real hungry for the
aip's. So, in the mornings i slowly
notice less and less aip's, so the peppies
must be hunting in the night time when the
visibility is less. Since the peppies are
red and clear, they are designed to be
invisible in the dark by nature, try to
cut down on any nighlighting you may have
and dont feed the tank too much as where
the peppies will be able to grab any food,
this way they will stay hungry and do
their job.

I added 5 Peppermint shrimp to my tank this weekend in order to try to
control an aptasia problem.
I did not foresee this problem:
The Shrimp are roughly the same size, shape and color as a Strawberry
Pseudochromis who has inhabited the 65 gallon space for about 8 months.
The Pseudy seems to actually be corralling the shrimp up into a corner of
the tank, very far away from said annoying anenomes.
