I say buy 2 berghia nudi's, they spawn pretty fast, then afterwards will prob only take a week to clear your tank

If it really is manjos I found a good old insulin syringe and hot water works. But the best way by far is taking the infected rocks out of your tank and taking fire (lighter or blow torch) to those little SOBs. But you will find a hundred different answers to your prob.

where can I get a ball anemone? sweet!

I'm not sure if you can by them or not.

Best bet is to look over some good cured live rock for them. Problem is, they can be pretty invasive, and can pack a somewhat nasty sting. Similar issue to majano and aptasia. They do look neat though. I've had a few in the past, and I just left them alone and they didn't spread too much.
