So I bought some more LR and noticed today that I have some hitchhikers. I think they are the anemones that that spread like wildfire. What is the best way to kill them. Thanks

Thanks, so what is Joes Juice? Do you make it your self or is it a solution you buy? Or would straight vinegar through a needle do the trick? Thanks

Update: I have been injecting the little buggers with distilled white vinegar. It seems to be working just fine. I wish there was a faster way I have tons of these guys. I thought they were like a furry mushroom at first so I let them grow. oops. Thanks for all of your help guys.
