If i was to put live rock in hot tap water for five minutes to kill off the aiptasia....how much damage would i do to the live rock?

More than likely you will kill all of the bacteria on the rock... It will no longer be live rock... Try mixing up some lime juice, warm water and small amount of cornstarch to make pastie... Then just shoot some on the aptasias tentacles and it should dissolve them.. May need one or two applications to totally kill it...

inject boiling lemon juice into the stem......DONE! No ill effects whatsoever...use a needle syringe....good to go!
