Why don't you try a copperband butterfly. I bought 1 from live aqua. , and about 3 weeks later I cannot find one aptasia. He has eaten them all, probably had 100 of the pests. He continues to hunt for them, and doesn't bother anything else.

If it's that effective then it won't live for long, right? Unless you're training it to eat pellets which maybe defeats the purpose. Also, bergia can get into spaces that a copperband can't.
Do Copperbands eat LPS? Or are you thinking of an Aip Eating Filefish, which definitely eat LPS. I always thought Copperbands ate aips exclusively and are hard to keep alive for a long time because of that.

He has a better chance of living then the bergia's. Don't care if he can't get in the cracks, as long as I don't see them, they are not much of a problem. I am actually feeding my tank more to try and keep a few aptasia, so he can continue to feed, to give me more time to train him to accept other foods. He only cost me about $35.00. How much are you going to pay for the Bergia ? And he is a good looking fish.....
