Latest thoughts on digitate hydroids?help

[moz71]

Have thousands on rocks on sand on snails everywhere. I have been reading a lot and can confirm they are DEFINITELY the digitate. Not the colony type. They don’t seem to bother anything except afraid keeping my pod population low but not sure. If they even eat them What is latest thoughts to get rid of them?. I am in a fallow period so been starving g tank but still there. Does anybody have success with peppermint shrimp or butterfly fish eating them. I feel I need to try something despite some people saying they will eventually go away.
