The issue with these little guys is that if you're just seeing one, typically there are a hundred more lurking, waiting to appear. I can actually see another one just to right of the one in your pic. If you can remove the rock, that may be your best chance, if not, you'll need to learn to live with them at some level. They are apart of just about every reef system I've ever seen.
