Annoying Button Polyps !!!

[garychef1]

I just got a MASSIVE orange zoos rock, at least 150 polyps after i tried counting. But there is one button mushroom smack dab in the middle of the rock. How do i get rid of it? The zoos are all beautiful orange and "bam!" one purple stain on the rock!

try to scrape off the button polyp, but be careful i heard that if there is a little bit of the stem left then a new polyp will grow in its place.

Im not sure if it would release a toxic or not. So just to be safe, you might want to do it in another tank or something like that.
I would just cut/scrape it off, shouldnt be that hard

Joes Juice should snuff him out with no damage to the rest of the colony..........
Dang I actually feel guilty being a part of deliberatley killing a coral...even a single polyp when doing it on purpose just feels wrong. LOL
Good luck.

i would just leave it
no harm, no foul.
obviously, they dont mind each other's company, so i wouldnt worry about it.

Cut it off and glue it to another rock.
