Snails, Sea Urchins, and Aiptasia....

I am moving my livestock to a new tank so I can nuke the old, Aiptasia infested tank. I am ready to start moving snails. Is there a way to ensure no Aiptasia gets in the new tank on the snails? Some sort of dip? How about a sea urchin?

I'm not sure about the sea urchin, but you could just take a wire brush and give the snails a good scrub before they go back in the DT.
