They are nice but I'm trying to find something that will be quick and easy, my Aiptasia is spreading like wild fire and I need to do something soon!

IMO, save your money.
Unless you can get to the foot of the aiptasia will just grow back.
Most aiptasia's have their foot protected in a small crevice and as long as there is still something left, they just grow back.

What would you do to get rid of them?

Superglue!

Superglue, kalkpaste, store bought remedy, peppermint shrimp, matted file fish, copperbanded butterfly.
There are a few options. While one option works for some, it may not work for the next guy.
I've been fighting aiptasia's for many years and tried them all.
Currently I have a copperbanded butterfly in my 233 and it's working, but not on the majanos.

I did try the laser and it did not work.
