I don't know what to do!!! I have a 75 gallon and it has aiptasia really bad! it's all over the live rock some in the sand and on glass sides and now growing next to corals and in some frags..... How do I get rid of this??? I wanted to sell so I didn't have to deal with it cause I heard it's so hard but thinking I won't now. Someone told me to boil all the live Rock.... I don't really want to but it will do the job since it has gotten so bad would that be best?? Please Help!!!

you can boil the rock. Literally cook the rock. You can get a syringe and shoot them in the mouths with lemon juice. Or you could use Berghia Nudibranch.
Or you could buy a Copperbanded Butterfly, and Peppermint Shrimp. Aiptasia Saltwater Aquarium Fish for Marine Aquariums: Copperband Butterflyfish Saltwater Aquarium Shrimp for Marine Reef Aquariums: Peppermint Shimps

So it's ok if lemon juice gets in the tank? Boiled a couple to see what would happen... What about all the little ones in the sand?

Grab the sand out and rinse it, the patches that you see them on. No its not ok to get lemon juice in the tank. you must use a syringe and shootit into the mouth of the aiptasia, I'm talkin just a smidge, its ok if you leak some, but not alot. And if you have that many, don't do a truck load all in one day.
