So I have this coral that I am not sure what it is (attaching pics). It must have been a hitchhiker because I didn't purchase it but it is literally growing wherever there is free rock space and in some cases over corals. I don't know how to get rid of it. Anyone know what it is and how to stop the spread of it and possibly get rid of it?

I thought xenia at first but not sure, problem with removing the rock is it has basically gotten on every rock so it would be hard to remove the rock. I will check out the febenzadole treatment.
