Copperbanded butterfly

I am thinking of getting one of these aptasia slaying fish but I have a rbta and a 6" welso brain coral. I am scared he would kill them.

i wouldnt worry about one with those specific corals. ive had many in my life and never had any issue with them with even sps or zoas. when looking at a store for one make sure you ask to see it eat. if it doesnt eat or it just came in pass on it. it's worth being picky on these fish
 
My CBB is always on the prowl for food and everysooften will take a nip of my acan (thus it will be sold this weekend) and even rarer, he will take a nip at my welso. but I've also had my purple tang take a nip at my welso. As far as the RBTA, I've not seen anyone but the clowns mess with them. The CBB just dares aiptasia to show it's self and he loves frozen. If only he'd go after my majanos
 
sooner or laer CBB and Foxface will eat other corals as well. If you are looking to take care of Aiptesia, I would recommend peppermint any day. You might have to use Joe's juice or concetrated kalc (in small portions at a time..), to kill the bigger ones. Just my 2 cents...
