What type of fish will get rid of my Aiptasia, brittle stars or these little worms in tubes with 2 antenna that stick out?

And will be safe with shrimp, shails, hermits, clown, yellow tang, goby, striped blenny, pajama fis, anemones and coral?

the brittle stars and the tube worms are good for your aquarium.

To rid aiptasia:
bergia nudibranches
peppermint shrimp(not a sure thing)
copper banded butterfly fish

Unless the little tubes are vermitid snails. Then they're not bad, but I can understand wanting rid of them. I've heard that a coris wrasse will eat them sometimes.

How big is your tank? That's going to be pretty important.

Peppermint shrimp will eat Aiptasia (some but not all, seems to be an individual shrimp thing), brittle stars are beneficial and should not be removed and I don't think there are any predators in the hobby that eat Spiondid Worms which are not harmful.
