SPS Question

[fishman7663]

Hello all!! Here is a pic of my montipora...I think it is an encrusting monti...please correct me if I'm wrong.

Anyway, it has begun to spread over my live rock. You can see to the left of the monti where it is spreading...My question is: is it impossible to separate the monti from the rock when the spreading begins without breaking it?

Thanks in advance
- Greg

If you can get the rock out then you can just frag it. Carefully cut or chip away at the rock underneath it. Otherwise you can carefully try to pry it and hope it doesn't break. I'm not a master fragger though so maybe someone else will have other ideas.
