If you want to control Aptasia get some peppermint shrimp for the tank. They are cheap, and DO eat it. I experienced them eating it first hand. The key is to not let the aptasia get out of control, or to large before adding the shrimp.

Yellow Wrasse are "with caution" fish on LA. To me this means "not reef safe." I would stay away from them personally, even though they do look good... Once added it would be very hard to catch in a tank of this size imo.

Copperbands die in aquariums due to transport. Their long beaks become damaged, and this is the reason they are difficult to get eating. The key is to buy one from someone local that is willing to part with a healthy fish. That could be tough. Again, they are a very nice looking fish.
