what to do with dead coral skeleton

[greymach]

I have a goniopora skeleton that i want to use for spreading some green star polyps over. I had the goniopora for only about a week before it died and all my other corals are great. I was wondering what i have to do to get rid of the die off of the goniopora. Should i boil it? it has been out of the water for a couple of weeks already and is sitting in my backyard. Also, if i just fragged some of my GSP and superglued it to the skeleton would that be a good way to do it?

everythign sounds great except that it has been sitting outside for a few weeks..be carefull no bugs or anythign like chemicals of some sort got onto it and now you putting it back in your tank..
you shouldhave just left it fry out then placed it bacvk in and glued the GSP to it..
rinse it well with hot water and hopefully it will be o.k..cool idea about the GSP by the way that will look neat

thanks for the help. it has been sitting in a bag outisde...not just outside sitting there. Would boiling it be a good idea?
