Anyone have luck keeping berghia alive in a tank with wrasses, or are they just toast?

My wrasses:
Blue star leopard wrasse
Yellow wrasse (Halichoeres chrysus)
2x Pink Streak wrasses

Second question: I have very very few aiptasia, but they are in impossible to reach places, so bio-methods seem most likely to help rid the problem. How long would 3 berghia last in a tank with maybe 5-10 aiptasia before being at risk of starving, assuming they survive the wrasses? I can rehome them quickly, I'm sure, but I'd want them to finish the job first.

Peppermints not gonna happen. Seen too many mutilated tasty corals for that.

Tanks is a 40g, so CBB also not an option. Thanks!

I’ve added nudis and they’ve taken care of my aptasia for the moment. But they come back later and luckily not with a vengeance. I got tired of paying for them so now I use hydrogen peroxide. Was recommended to me and tried for the first time the other day and it worked. Luckily they are not close to corals so it hasn’t affected them.
