How exactly do you get the lemon juice on the aptasia? Will it hurt the
other inhabitants? Its in the middle of a small rock with some zoa's

I have done knowing a syringe into the stalk area of the aptasia. Only do a few at a time.

I got my syringe from my vet. I took pics and articles to prove what I was doing and they gave me a syringe.

Fill up the syringe and stab it in the mouth and unload!

I also use a syringe and boil the lemon juice first. never bothers any coral, but I don't have an aptasia problem. only one now and then.

Using a syringe is the easiest way. I've also used kalk paste through a syringe. You can buy syringes at Walgreens or Farm and Fleet if you have them in the area. For kalk you want a large syringe, lemon juice you can use a finer one.

I'd recommend treating them even if it may damage a zoa or two. Aptasia will spread quickly if untreated.
