Got to get rid as soon as you see them cos they can spread like wildfire...and they can sting and leave ugly marks on fishes.

No you can't .

From what I know that reefer usually put Peppermint shrimp inside the tank to control Aiptasia populations,but the arthropods regularly prey on small cnidarian polyps. So nudibranch Berghia verrucicornis is highly recommended & it's considered one of the best predators for Aiptasia sp.

Yes, nudibranch is not easy to keep mainly due to feeding issue. Berghia is the nature predators(feed on) for Aiptasia so you have to sell/give away once your tank is clear of Aiptasia else it will starved to dead too !
