I have vermetids and for a bit thought I would defeat them. Pulled rocks and crunched them, used super glue over any I couldn't get at fully, and so on. They continued coming and IMO it's an impossible battle that way, especially if they haven't taken over.
Then I for other reasons for a melanurus wrasse. Over time realized the vermetids were basically gone. Very few now, outside of in the overflow compartment.
If the tank is appropriate size, I'd try a wrasse if you want to control vermetids. Great fish to have for all sorts of baddies.
